Message joeneugs beers 6372 º places 240 º 20:02 Fri 4/4/2014 IS FREAKING AWESOME THIS YEAR JUST LIKE EVERY YEAR!!!!!!! I don’t know, but it’s something about it’s crisp maltiness, firm hop flavor, bitterness and clean, dry palate that gets me this time of year. It seems to drop off around June when the really warm weather shows up, but during April and May this beer ROCKS! It’s not super complex or even interesting, but it’s still one of my favorite seasonals from any brewery.
Message joeneugs beers 6372 º places 240 º 07:20 Sat 4/5/2014 Wow. Crickets on this one? Nobody else is excited about Summerfest?
Message malrubius beers 3502 º places 33 º 09:06 Sat 4/5/2014 Funny. (Didn’t I start doing this a couple years ago? You need to add some "!?!?!?!" after the beer name to get people interested in it, I think.) I like it okay. Personally, I think they should consider replacing it with Snow Wit, perhaps renamed. Anyhow, I like Snow Wit better as a potential summer beer.
Message dmac beers 6644 º places 35 º 10:00 Sat 4/5/2014 As of yesterday I had to turn my heat back on. Definitely not in summer beer mode yet.

Message barncatmatt beers 2287 º places 71 º 10:28 Sat 4/5/2014 I’ve had exactly one bottle of summerfest but I loved every drop of it. Wish I could buy that one here in Ontario.

Weren’t your threads usually about Bigfoot though?
Message HonkeyBra beers 4044 º places 13 º 15:35 Sat 4/5/2014 They should put it in cans.

Message smith4498 beers 4285 º places 20 º 15:46 Sat 4/5/2014 I need to revisit it. It’s been a few years since I’ve had one. Anyway, shouldn’t Octoberfest beers be coming out soon?

Message ClarkVV P beers 13401 º places 111 º 16:38 Sat 4/5/2014 Certainly the best widely available beer ever brewed ;)
