After fourteen years of developing house-made, beer-infused ice cream at Victory’s in-house restaurant, the brewery debuted the Victory Ice Cream line at the beginning of July, national ice cream month.
There are three Victory Ice Cream flavors. The Triple Monkey is banana ice cream made with the wort from Victory’s Belgian-style tripel, Golden Monkey, swirled with pecans. The Hopped-Up Devil is cayenne and cinnamon ice cream made with HopDevil IPA wort studded with crushed coffee beans and flaked chocolate. The Storm Drop is chocolate ice cream made with the wort from Storm King Imperial Stout and deep chocolate drops.
Like Victory Brewing, Penobscot Bay Brewery in Winterport, Maine, is skipping the beer floats and putting beer directly into fresh ice cream, too. Available at the brewery are pints of chocolate-swirled ice cream flavored with the Penobscot Bay Brewery Half Moon Stout.
