Star Trek fans will soon be able to own an alcohol that Captain Jean-Luc Picard himself would put down the Earl Grey for.
Ten-Forward Vodka, made by Silver Screen Bottling Company and CBS Consumer Products, is created by sending a small batch of the alcohol out into the earth’s mesosphere using a high-altitude balloon, Food & Wine reported.

Though, Ryan Mcelveen, Chief Operating Officer of Silver Screen Bottling, admits traveling to the outer edges of the earth’s atmosphere won’t change the taste of the six-distilled grain-alcohol, the boozy gimmick will give Trekkie’s the opportunity to “boldly go where no man has gone before" with their beverage.
The vodka, which is named after the on-ship bar area on the Starship Enterprise-D in The Next Generation, Ten Forward lounge, sports a logo that is equally as representative of the beloved science fiction series.
