Raise a cone at Salt & Straw in Disney Springs with a limited-edition flight of delicious beer-based ice creams!

Cheers to Salt & Straw in Disney Springs who have unveiled their latest limited-time ice cream flavors for June, tapping five of the most amazing microbrewers in America for beer-based ice creams.

The Disney Spring's scoop shop Salt & Straw has a pretty unique menu featuring 12 regular classic flavors as well as a rotating monthly menu that offers delicious seasonal specials, and this month is great news for beer lovers!

The scoop shop is tapping five of the most amazing microbrewers in America for one incredible flight of delicious beer-based ice creams. From Seattle to Portland to Santa Rosa—and Miami to LA—these brewers keep their hometowns double- and triple-hopping with the best beers you've ever tasted.

Salt & Straw has transformed their artistry into ice cream. So whatever your pleasure—porter, stout, lager, ale or hazy IPA—you're in for a pint to remember. Take one down and pass it around.

For our 12th collaboration with Ben Edmunds at Portland's super-award-winning Breakside, we're rolling out their unique barrel-aged stout—which nobody but a couple 500-year-old Belgian breweries even dare attempt to make. We're steeping cocoa nibs in it for a couple days, then coating the nibs in chocolate, adding the leftover beer with cream and sugar, and swirling in rich tres leches cake with one of the leches replaced with, you guessed it, more stout. The chocolate malty taste gives you this triple intensity. Made with Portland's Breakside Barrel-Aged Stout

Originally born in Cuba 150 years ago, La Tropical's La Original Ambar Lager is being brewed again in Miami and we couldn't be prouder to be compadres. The bready, graham-cracker-like profile of this amazing elixir took us on a flavor journey straight to the land of flan, where we followed the original, ancient recipe to create a sunny syrup capped with a succulent guava drizzle. Underlying notes of honey, perfectly balanced with noble hops, will make you raise your cone and cry "Viva La Tropical!" Made with Miami's La Tropical La Original Lager featuring Nugget, Idaho 7, Centennial and Amarillo Hops.

Hitting a custom flavor homerun with Rodney Hines at last year's MLB All-Star game is just one of our happy collaborations with Seattle's Black-owned Métier. Next up: This celebration of his silky-smooth Black Stripe Coconut Porter and marvelous Marjorie's it's-outta-here bread pudding. After we cook the beer recipe into a rich, robust syrup and pour in a heavy splash of the porter, you slide home with little bites of crispy brioche toffee on top of gooey bread pudding. Grand slam. Made with Seattle's Métier Black Stripe Porter featuring Nugget and Idaho 7 Hops

Let's be perfectly clear-ish: Henry Nguyen's Monkish Space Cookies is one cool LA beer, triple-hopped and made with vanilla wafers to create a kind of "stoner's IPA". It gets its iconic hazy profile from a sharp use of English yeast, and we dial it into focus with our own triple-hopping process—a little boiling, a little cold steeping, and a little steeping with Everclear. Pitch in a decent amount of beer with some fresh grapefruit zest and a swirl of 'nilla cookie butter. You'll be Monkish space case, too. Made with LA's Monkish Space Cookies & Cream Hazy IPA featuring Centennial and Amarillo Hops

In our humble beer nerd community, Russian River Brewing is considered the best brewery in the world. It seems impossible that we even got to work with them, let alone make frozen yogurt with this particular beer. Supplication Ale is aged 12 months with dried cherries in Pinot Noir barrels, and when it comes out—once a year—we chase the beer truck down the street. That's why we're so excited to blend the taste of Supplication into a really light fudge, swirl it with a touch of manchego cheese, and add a ribbon of marmalade made with those same tart cherries. It's fresh, tangy, and calm-tasting—all things considered—and that beer fudge is the star of the show.  Made with Santa Rosa's Russian River Supplication Ale.
