My friend said that someone made him a beer float one time and it was excellent. They used a high-quality vanilla ice cream in a very dark beer (Guinness stout?)
I don’t drink beer so I don’t know if it would be good, but he swears it was awesome.

This is what I came into say. A nice, smooth stout, such as Brooklyn Chocolate Stout, or Breckenridge Vanilla Porter, with a scoop of vanilla. Shot of flavored vodka optional.

Ok, I am intrigued! There are a ton of recipes for this out there, all of which look pretty damned tasty…what’s your recipe?

This is the closest recipe I could find to what my parents made- neither can remember specifically, but both agree that this is close:
2 scoops vanilla ice cream
1 ounce Kahlua
1 ounce creme de cacao
1 ounce vodka
blend up in blender. Serve in wine glass.
As I remember, it was kind of the thickness of a Wendy’s Frosty, and was served with a spoon.
There are a million variations of this drink- some frozen, some not- here are a few
