Got to get back in shape for the summer beers. This is one of my all time favorites, lighter body but flavorful, and with a low abv it's a great session beer. Excellent drinkability.

I'm always looking for something session worthy for the summer beaches, so if anyone can turn me on to one of their favorites that's big on flavor, medum light on body and low in alcohol like Tetleys i'm all ears:banger
I recently tasted Goose Island 312 and Summertime kolsch again for the first time in awhile and this is exactly what I thought of. Nice light beers, but with great flavor, no off flavors, and just a great beer to drink on during summer. Haven't really tried any other ones this year. I wonder if Brooklyn's Summer Ale is good.

I had my first a couple weekends ago too and agree that I'll have to keep some on hand when the warmer weather comes back. Very refreshing and reasonably priced.

Went on a road trip into MA today to try to score some things I can't get in NY.

Picked up a growler of Opa Opa Raspberry Wheat while near the brewery there.

We have a contender for the ResIpsa Beer o' the Summer award, :D

Had a Dogfish head Indian Brown Ale. I've really been digging this stuff lately.

Scored some Sierra Nevada 30th Anniversary Fritz and Ken Ale . :dr
this stuff is outstanding....The bottle presentation is beautiful and it is one of the best stouts that I've ever had the pleasure of drinking. Shared a bottle last night with some friends, and it blew us all away.

http://www.sierra30.com/#/fritz-and-ken-s-ale

It's the first release of four 30th anniversary brews.

This?

I love massive Stouts, but if you had this, judging by your comments, I would think you would think differently. If I recall it was a fairly thick beer with significant bourbon flavor. It is 11.6% abv. I'm aging the other bottles I have.

If you've ever been to the DFH brewery in DE, this beer has it's very own fermenting vat made out of palo santo wood. Very aromatic, and very very dense wood--the beer actually smells like the wood it's fermented in. I have a picture of the vat around somewhere, I'll try to find & post it.

Summit India Pale Ale.
Pairs great with a taco salad.

Had a Lagunitas Maximus earlier, drinking a Founders Imperial Stout now. I think I need to make a road trip to Grand Rapids, MI to pay hommage to Founders.

That Indian Brown Ale tastes so damn good, the hint of sugar in it really works.

But as for beers, I know this will probably be blasphemy, but I have been actually enjoying:

21st Amendment Brew Free or Die IPA in a .....GASP... CAN. Its no DFH 90min. or Green Flash WCIPA but still, 9.00 bucks for a 6'er, damn fine sessionable IPA IMO and if you haven't tried it and dig moderate strength hopiness (7.0 %abv) then its def. worth a go. Its amazing opening a can of beer and no matter how many times I open on (5 thus far) I can't ever get over the fact that it doesn't smell like Coors or Miller Lite.

nothing wrong with a canned beer. Oskar Blues cans their beers (Ten Fidy)
