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?


not a bad idea. Idk what the ABV is but I'll check when I get home. It was WAY too sweet and not enough "beer" taste.

I take it all back.

I had a bottle of homebrew last night that was a Cucumber Green tea beer that was easily the most refreshing beer I have ever had.

to the brewer. Amazing.

I don’t think it’s seasonal but Fire Rock’s Pale Ale is damn good.

All day at work i was trying to think of a way to clone that thing...and the sour mash ale. Phenomenal tasting last night.

Drinking the Magic Hat Wacko right now.

Quite nice.

Interesting descriptor on the bottle, "a beer with beet juice color."

Not sure I've seen that before.

I am a huge Sam Adams fan. Obsessive really. But I dont care for the summer ale for some reason.

Sierra Nevada ftw

Good beer is good no matter the season or weather. With that said, I have some Mojo IPA sitting in the fridge.

Sierra Nevada Kellerweis is also good. The best American Brewed Hefeweizen out there.

Sierra Nevada Summerfest is best seasonal I've had.

Very crisp and refreshing.

cool, I'll have to check it out.



I wish Sam Adams had a better seasonal than their Summer Ale, just doesn't do it for me.

Yep, definitely disappointed by their Summer Ale. I do enjoy their Noble Pils.

Attest.

I also like Purple Haze, but the Abita Satsuma is barf to me.
