Summer is ON and American craft brewers are addressing things with sensational new beers you’re gonna want to have around this weekend.
The Unofficial Start Of Summer (Boston, MA) – Nothing marks summer like the return Samuel Adams’ beloved warm weather seasonal which received a serious recipe update in 2015. Amped up with additions of pureed oranges, limes and lemons to its classic profile Samuel Adams Summer Ale is a 5.3% ABV citrusy Wheat Ale that’s a lighter and brighter take on the Boston Beer classic.
Lemon Aid (Croydon, PA) – Neshaminy Creek Brewing, an award-winning craft brewery and taproom located just north of Philadelphia has introduced a new line of beers inspired by another Bucks County legend, Rita’s Italian Ice & Custard. The first beer was a tribute to Rita’s most popular flavor…mango. That beer sold out almost overnight but now there’s a new variation.
