Favorite summer beers

[stick]

Summer temps arrived this week and my fridge is still full of spring beers and everyday/"maintainer" beers. It's time to rotate some stock and I need some new summer beer recs. So what's your favorite?

I generally drink heavy ales and stouts year round but lately have been drinking a few Land Shark lagers and they go well with the warmer weather.

One of my new favs is Wittekerke. It's a Belgian Witbier. Good and tart not too much body so it's real refreshing. Blonde ales are good and I'm going to make a Belgian-style saison ale.

An ice cold El Presidente is great on a hot day, or a nice wheat with a slice of orange.

Great lakes beer is my favorite company. They just released an Imperial IPA called Lake Erie Monster. It is absolutely outstanding.

I also like Holy Moses and Goose Island's 312 in the summer.

I like my beer dark, strong & sweet, regardless of the season. Have a case each of Bells Expidition Stout, Dogfish Head Palo Santo & Zywiec Porter.

I prefer Brown Ales but Blue Moon w/ a slice of Orange is pretty good.

Sierra Nevada Summerfest!! Best summer beer I've found in MS so far.

That's a good one. Not a huge variety to choose from here though. Also, Blue Moon, Shock Top Belgian White, and Franziskaner Hefe-Weisse.

I do like my dark beers but for summer Ice cold Moose Drool is good. Domestic Coors does the trick in a pinch.

I like Full Sail Sunspot IPA series as well as Session. Harpoon summer is good and I always keep some good German Whit around. Cream Ales are also kept in the fridge. Laughing Dog and Pelican Breweries both making great examples.

Brand wise, Stone Brewing and Port Brewing. When I can get to the San Diego area, The Alpine Beer Company brew some wicked concoctions. I like DARK and crazy retarded hoppy IPA's. In a pinch, I will drink Coors and XX amber.
