"Bottles of Ale" -- a Star Trek fan production

A Romulan freighter loaded with smoulder weed and Romulan ale has crashed on the surface of Eriska IV. Both the Eriskans and the Romulans have called for help to resolve their differences. The Starship Webster has sent down a landing party to mediate. It's going to be one of those days...

If one of those bottle's of ale should happen to fall......EPIC! Great film! Really enjoyed this!

[@davemac2580]

Smashing Idea!

[@FLAME4564]

😆XD LOL reminds me of that old Beer song LOL XD hahahahaha 99 bottles of Beer on the wall LMAO XD HAH!!

[@drmayeda1930]

@@FLAME4564 That's the base of the song but updated.

[@andytay5507]

Thanks for one of the most unique and well written episodes I've seen since 'Of God's and Men'.

[@mkendallpk4321]

I must say another fine production. Keep up the good work!

[@CDNBVR1]

I concur. I especially like the reference to the "Damaged crate'.

[@HeyitsHilda]

Great work Webster crew!

[@PhilDrury]

Bloody good! And having opened a few bottles, I feel compelled to drop a slight yet modified reference. Drink! Trek! Arse! Girls!

[@brunozeigerts6379]

Tsk tsk... such shenanigans from respected Star Fleet officers! Maybe it's time to address the oliphant in the room... if there ever was one.

[@Potemkin1711]

It's in the post-credits scene, and I'm not sure it would fit in the hangar deck.

[@michaelaldredge-greenwell1692]

“Kerfuffle”…😂😂😂😜😜😜😂😂😂!! Loving it😁😁😁😁😁

[@hahsydxhy7gh908]

You have such a versatile troupe, this was a lot of fun to watch! Billy Swanson's swagger is well-suited for Romlulan Crocutus- he just chews up his lines, and it takes a keen eye to recognize the cool talents of Mat Acra, whom I just figured out has played a number of bridge support roles in other episodes, as Rifkin. Some of the best interactions went to Raymond, Boston, and Hughes- showing humor and playfulness very reminiscent of TOS. If you haven't already, y'all need to do some live events. People would love it!

[@Potemkin1711]

We do a few live remotes every year, but our biggest joy is making Star Trek for everyone.

[@russredfern167]

I appreciate your time and effort on this video

[@DMSProduktions]

Trek ON!

[@ChristinaMoore79]

Love seeing Billy in yet another role in the Potemkin universe, though Crocutis needs to fire his barber, lol. This was a great little story, I liked it a lot.

Our pleasure!

[@Taliesin-xd7ke]

Very funny episode, shows the day to day operations of starfleet superbly.

[@drmayeda1930]

Not daay to day but some of the lower ranked crew members who normally would be mentions.

[@michaelaldredge-greenwell1692]

Charming and fun

[@kerrya6303]

So fun to see these. Good job everyone!

[@8ballali]

Brilliant.

[@brunozeigerts6379]

Variation on a Benny Hill skit(I think) 9 bottles of Romulan ale ... if one of those bottles should accidently fall, there'd be ...' Singers look around in confusion, trying to compute the next number, '* bottles of Romulan ale...'

[@quoniam426]

So this is how the Romulan ale trafficking is going on... Love the detail marking on the rover/truck or whatever it is "Oliphant Protection Bureau". Is it the future version of Middle Earth???

[@Raggedymannn]

Super job by all, thank you all for sharing your time and personal magic

[@cwtnc]

Cool!

[@eldergroan]

i love the tricorn hats - it makes total sense that far-flung colonies would have cultural eccentricities!

[@johnw2026]

I want an Oliphant to train as my protection! 😁

[@Potemkin1711]

Isn't it just AWESOME?! Richard did a fantastic job creating an actual physical model of the creature.

[@wernerlouderback6796]

Congrats Liz in having a script produced 😃👍 Right on!!!! 😁

[@terryrose4804]

Too much Wheel of Fortune on my mind. Your thumbnail makes me want to call out a letter.

I assure you Pat and Vanna don't make an appearance, but it does have a big surprise at the end.

[@startrekfanproductionsintl]

Quite the entertaining film!

[@thecopycat7153]

Romulan ale is illegal but somehow, someway it gets into the hand's of federation officers a lot of wheeling and dealing going on here and that beast looked like a mutated elephant but cool looking but I wouldn't want to meet it in a dark alley looks like it has a bad temper, excellent work for this episode.

[@FLAME4564]

tell that to the romulan jackasses of that romulan cargo ship that crashed on that planet in federation space.

[@Capt.Marco-Hawk-L.L.A.P]

Romulan Ale! I could do with a couple of bottles, I have a difficult Diplomatic mission ahead and it would ease tensions.

[@greenr369]

Excellent video. I'd do the same for ale.

[@Atlas_System01]

Was the music in this episode inspired by the Star Trek Legacy OST because I heard some similarities to one of the songs from that game

[@Potemkin1711]

I have no idea, but I'll ask the composer. It's rather more likely that such similarities are coincidental. I myself thought it had some resemblance to Dennis McCarthy's work for TNG.

[@MissMarinaCapri]

Olithant ! 🤣

Love your productions... but... it would really be nice if you could standardize on uniform uniforms...

[@Potemkin1711]

We actually have been slowly moving toward standardizing our uniforms. It's a matter of budget. If you'd like to help make it happen, you can donate through PayPal at [e-mail].

[@helenofirvine]

@@Potemkin1711 Absolutely. I would be honored to help.
