    Guinness, or similar year round.

    However, in the summer I am a fan of Blue Moon. At a risk of sounding un-manly, a slice of orange in a pint of Blue Moon is a great summer beer. And, if you order a BM at the bar, they server it automatically with an orange slice.


    Also, just because I know tons of people will post this I will do it myself.


    Don't Fruit The BEEEER!!!!...except with Blue Moon

    Pyramid makes some tasty ass beer. My personal summer fav is Boont Summer Solstice from Anderson Valley Brewing company. Great stuff.

    Stella Artois are nice in the 500ml cans 5% ...no hangover on this stuff.

    I'm having a green Tuborg right now 4.6% and it's about as easy as drinking beer gets as far as taste goes.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Bell's Oberon is my favorite beer period... as far as other stuff that's good in the summer, the Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat and Summer Shandy ain't too fuckin' bad at all.

    Then again an ice cold Miller Lite usuallly does me just fine. Hell, in the summer... if the beer's cold, I'll drink it. I just tore through a case of Blatz a few weeks back.

    Red Stripe with a lime, or a Dos Equis in the green bottle.

    It would be Alexander Keith's IPA if they sold it in the States.

    Fanch and I will argue that Natty Light is the beer for all seasons.
