Lots of ways to drink something green

I hope you're thirsty, as I've got a drinks cabinet full of new Star Trek barware to share today. First up, a really fun new creation from ThinkGeek: The transporter pad coaster (which comes in a set of four), which has both light and sound effects that activate when you put your drink down, and pick it up. As you can see in the video below, it's a good effect, although you might also be relieved to know the sound can be muted to ensure you don't get transporter psychosis from all the noise!

It's green

Are you an Orion woman loosing their potency with age? Well fear not, when your pheromones fail you, the Orion Syndicate has got your back, ready for you to manipulate the minds of others by softening them into a drunken stupor, with Syndicate Lager for Orion seductresses.

Or something like that... The latest alcoholic beverage from Federation of Beer was available over the weekend, at Destination Star Trek, in London. StarTrek.com gave this description of the exclusive release:

The beer is inspired by the popular green Orion Girls of Star Trek lore and it's produced in Zatec, Czech Republic, the heart of bohemia that is renowned for the cultivation of Saaz noble hops and barley malt. The lager is brew using traditional Czech technology that produces a lager golden in color with full flavor. Its nose is of medium aroma of light malt with hops and it shows a rich head.

An honorable drink

Official Star Trek brewer, Federation of Beer, has announced the launch of their second Star Trek beverage, the Klingon Warnog. Here's how they describe the new beer (via IGN):

This singular beer incorporates rye malt into a modern Dunkelweizen grain bill, creating a flavor profile that is both familiar and unique. Warnog's aroma is predominantly mild banana and clove produced by the German wheat yeast, supported by subtle sweet malt character from the use of Munich malt. The flavor draws heavily from the blending of the rye malt and traditional clove character, creating a very rich and unique flavor. The inclusion of wheat and caramel malts help to round out the mouthfeel of this beer, making this Dunkelweizen hearty enough to be called a Klingon Warnog.

The beer will be premiered on March 25th, at the Nightclub and Bar Show in Las Vegas, and will available in the US and Canada later in the year.

Here's the full can design:
