In the 2015 movie The Martian, a terrifying dust storm leaves Matt Damon stranded on Mars without his comrades. To survive, he’s forced to live for months on nothing but a few measly potatoes he planted inside his spaceship.

It’s too bad he didn’t have a little Astronaut Eye Scream to break the monotony! And no, I’m not talking about those weird, freeze-dried packets. I mean the thirst-quenching, double-dry hopped Milkshake IPA from Illuminated Brew Works!

By harnessing the power of tropical fruit-drenched Galaxy Hops and the creaminess of lactose, the brewers made today’s beer as delectable as a DQ blizzard on a sweltering summer day — or any day on sun-scorched Mars. 

Astronaut Eye Scream pours like a melted tangerine popsicle, while aromas of nectarous peach, ripe mango, and grapefruit pith tease your nose. Juicy orange flavors of Mosaic, Citra, and Mandarina Bavaria Hops dance on the tongue, bringing a bright citrus zest that’s softened by a delicate lactose sweetness. A dry finish complements the velvety soft mouthfeel, enticing you to take another juicy sip.

So if the inside of your house is starting to feel as hot as a desert planet, consider cracking open a can of this delicious Eye Scream! 4 out of 5 astronauts agree: it’s waaaay better than potatoes.
