Star Trek: The Next Generation 30th Anniversary Ale -- Captain's Holiday
You don't have to be a Starfleet Captain or negotiate a difficult trade agreement between the Gemarians and the Dachlyds to deserve a little rest and relaxation. In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Captain's Holiday," the crew convinces Captain Picard to take a much-needed vacation on the pleasure planet Risa. Number One (Commander Riker) tricks the Captain into buying a small statue called a Horga'hn when he arrives. After being accosted by a steady stream of women, he is told that displaying the statue in public suggests he is seeking Jamaharon. Whether for Jamaharon or simpler moments of pleasure, Shmaltz's tropical getaway should be perfect for kicking back and escaping the stresses of everyday life here on Earth.Enjoy the lemon, lime and orange citrus flavors of Captain's Holiday Ale and engage in a well-deserved vacation with every sip!
