Jimmy Buffett Concert Beer ideas??

[KoedBrew]

So I am going to the Jimmy Buffett Concert June 23rd in Philly.

I want to Brew something that is Big Tasty and Crisp for a hot day.
I'm not talking 10-12% big but somewhere from 6.5% to 8.5% ABV
But it needs to be a beer that can be enjoyed well in the heat and I can brew it in the next two weeks or later and it will be ready for June 23rd??

Any Proposals?? Links to recipes would be a bonus!

I know it sounds disgusting but you are just going to have to make a margarita ale.

If its like the JB concerts I've been too, then Id skip the homebrew and just stick to Corona and lime

No offense, but huh? Corona?? That stuff is nasty! Haven't had more than a sip of it in 5 years!


Background: We arrive at the Buffett Concert Parking lot at 9-10 AM the morning of the concert! We will find a nice spot in the lot and cook breakfast. Play some games, look at all the hotties, and Drink Lots and Lots of Beer!

Last year I had 151 Spiked Watermelon bites, and a Case of Wyerbacher Big Beers...nice, especailly after a couple Blithering Idiots!

Moonshine margaritas sound perfect. Ive had landshark which is similar to corona and made by margaritaville I wouldnt brew it though

That would be a Grateful Dead show - Parrotheads are mostly alcohol and weed types. At least that's what I've heard. I wouldn't know anything about it myself.

I went to a show last year in Camden NJ and brewed up a Citra Pale ale. Dry hopped with some Nelson Sauvin. Gave it a nice ripe tropical fruit taste.

Those tailgate parties with fellow parrotheads are as much fun as the concerts and sometimes go on longer.
How about some When the Volcano Blows Pale Ale.Overcarbed of course.

I will be at the concert in the ATL. They started in the past few years not letting us in until noon. I love the parking lot. I think I'm taking my "It's 12:00 Somewhere Ale" and maybe my Breakfast Stout. http://www.flickr.com/photos/halldawg/5685644672/FYI, that is not me.

LOL! no offense taken!
I was just saying that the concerts I have been to were like an 8hr pre-party to a 2hr concert. After the first 2 hours, you didn't care what you were drinking!
