    You can view the article at https://ufplanets.com/news.php?1061-Scotty-beer-me-up!

    Are you interested in trying some Star Trek beverages? Did they miss a trick in not bringing back Romulan Ale? Is Vulcan Ale logical?

    I'm sure they did an energy drink of Romulan ale (see link below), but it was only sold in the US. Cry

    It was nice but its not something you could drink a lot of I remember buzzing like a tribble! Tribble3 Smile

    In answer to the question, yes I would love to see more Trek themed beverages, definitely a market that they have not explored enough.

    You're quite right they did, that's why I'm surprised there doesn't seem to be any announcement of it making a comeback.

    I can understand why it didn't take off previously but with the energy drink market that is around today, surely it would be a more financially stable investment now, I hope it does get a re-launch I loved it, just used to cost be £3 a can!

    You could probably find it online somewhere, while searching I did come across this website.

    They've even got a Twitter.

    Not a huge fan of American pale ales, I also believe most of the value of this is going to be a collectors item and not a beverage to enjoy.
