Pale Ale, English Bitter, Scottish 60 Schilling.....All lighter beers for Summer.

Wheat, imperial wheat or summer honey.

Every beer is a seasonal. I drink stouts during the summer and pales during the winter. It honestly doesn't matter to me. I brew what I want.

Crank out one or two lighter beers (I recommend a bitter, pale ale, or wheat beer of your choice) that will be ready rather quickly then get to work on a RIS or barleywine so it has time to age for the winter.

Edit: I almost forgot to mention a low ABV dry stout for grilling season!

Brew a strong beer to condition until winter. Barleywine, or RIS, or Strong Ale, ro something like that.

Can't go wrong with a good hoppy pale ale.

Odd. I always felt that stouts were a winter beer (since they are good served warmer) and pale ales and lagers are for summer (more refreshing). To each his own I guess.


OP: I would go with a wheat beer, great spring brew, throw a small amount of coriander and sweet orange peel in the primary for a spring taste! :rockin:

Great suggestions! I have never tried a barleywine before so it shall be! i have a light summer beer kegged already and another in mind for my non beer drinking friends Bud lighters they are so a Barleywine recipe it will be.

A cold Pilsner is always good on a hot day if you have temperature control to make it.
