I love a good German Hefe. Check out Weihenstephaner Hefe Weissbier. One of my favorites!

I prefer more IPAs in the summer, but as far as summer brews go I use to love the Sweetwater Summer Hummer but it has been retired so I will have to find a new favorite

I love IPAs and Ales more than any thing else. That's why the Ipswitch Summer Ale tastes the best IMO it does not have that wheat beer taste.

I like the Old Speckled Hen English Ale. Good flavor, medium bodied and light on the alcohol content so you are not walking around like a sweaty wasted mess. Good stuff.

I'm a big fan of Bells Oberon, though this thread is giving me a nice list of ones to try. :tu

Aren't they great! Reminds me a of Euro beer and does taste different (in a good way) from the bottled version. I had my first one last week and was impressed. Also, it forces me to pour it in a glass, where I would've just drank it from the bottle previously.

I tend to lean toward wheats in the summer. Sunshine wheat being one of them. :) Lots of great Hefe's to be had.

That's funny I drink it from the can and pour it into a glass when its in teh bottle. Not all of the time mind you when the buzz gets big enough I just get lazy:)

Usually I enjoy Sierra Nevada Summerfest, but this year I have been drinking a lot of SN Old Chico Crystal Wheat!!!
Very refreshing on a warm day or night!!!

I like all kinds of beer, but will often reach for IPAs in the summer. Right now I have Dogfish Head 60 Minute and Smutteynose IPA in my fridge. :tu and :tu

I love IPA's and Pale Ales in the summer - really impressed with Redhook's new Big Ballard IPA.

If you love German Hefeweizens, give Franziskaner or Paulaner a shot! Those were my favorite while in Germany(well, of the ones that are available in the states at least)!

Sam's summer is a staple for me, but I also enjoy SeaDog or Wachusett Blueberry. Let the flaming begin!
