OT-Best Summer Beers
I was wondering what some of your favorite summer time microbrew beers are. The obvious choice is Bell's Oberon. I typically shy away from fruity, light, summertime style beers as i really enjoy Barley Wine style and Old Ales, but i really enjoy Oberon and Summer Shandy. So what do you guys drink during the summer?
Pyramid's Curveball. Just a real easy, seasonal beer to drink. It powered me through the ND game last year and will forever be my beer during games versus the Irish.
Lot's of people will say Oberon, but in my IMHO, Bell's has an even BETTER summer time beer:
This is true, but they sell it all year round. I actually get kind of bummed in GR when some of the bars replace it with Oberon during the summer.
But currently drizzing a Jever pilsner, a good example of the pilsner style. Pilsner isn't necessarily my favorite style, but I prefer it as a summer drink to a lot of the vaguely-defined "summer"-branded beers that just end up kind of light and vaguely fruity but mostly formless.
Would prefer a Bell's Hopslam over almost anything in any season.
