I actually enjoy Abita Wheat.

Although it isn't a seasonal, St. Arnold's Lawnmower is very good and my favorite summer beer.

St. Arnold's Summer Pils. Mainly because it's the only beer I actually like from St. Arnold's and it's only in stores this time of year.

Whatever you do, do NOT try the Wild Blueberry Lager with a blue bulldog logo. It's HORRIBLE.

I bought a six pack thinking it may be a good summer brew, but I now have 5 bottles in my fridge that are likely going to be thrown away this weekend.

Cut it 50/50 with Bud Light or Coors Light and you will be able to knock it out. Isn't the Wild Blue ~ 9% ABV?

hated it the first time I tried it, but then tried it again after doing manual labor and thought it was fantastic


I've always liked Shiner's Heferweizen in the summer

Although not rated well, Pete's Wicked Summer Brew is worth a try.
