Bit of a threadjack, but the 2012 World Beer Cup judging finished 10 minutes ago and Indiana breweries won a total of 8 medals - so 8 of the world's best beers this year are brewed somewhere in your neck of the woods and may just end up being your new favorite summer beer!

For the record (excluding ours), I'll probably be drinking some Belgian Red from New Glarus this summer...

I drink your beer year round lol.

Never been that much of a beer guy, but local, I like Sheet Metal Blonde when I can find it, otherwise Arrogant Bastard or Double Bastard (I don't get to keep my keys). Ales more than anything, but Baltika #3 is good, too.

Bell's Oberon

Yup. Sunshine in a bottle.

I bought some summer shandy last year and thought it was too sweet.

Good ole regular cold beer for me. Personally, I do not care for all the flavors and strong taste. Fosters is about the most flavorful beer I will drink.

I recently had ShockTop lemon and orange. Both good beers. Also, if you haven't had a bud chelada, you are missing out on something good. I get those sporadically and mostly drink whatever is on sale. PBR and Old Style if I had to choose.

My favorite beer - for all seasons - is Leinenkugel's Classic Amber. I want beer which tastes like beer!

Icehouse, on occasion 3 floyds Gumball head.

bells oberon or shock top. or sun king cream ale. or flat 12 walkabout. should i keep going?

"Orange Blossom"- Yes! I have tried that. I may have to revisit that brew. My wife liked it too. As I remember, I had the OB after a number of killer pale ales (think high alcohol %)...

Mixing in your own lemonade? Hmm, I may have to try that...Appeals to my normally frugal self (wife inserts "cheap ba$tard")

Ultimate summer beer?=Keystone Light and a splash of generic lemonade!

Just bottled a pale ale today, trying to get the umph to bottle a common. Have a 60 minute clone ready to go.

I didn't know they made anything other than miller lite!

 

[GBuck]

Summer Shandy or Mich Ultra.

ETA: NOTHING is better than an ICE COLD Coors Light when it's 90 degrees out Memorial Day weekend listening to the Indy 500. That's about the only time I ever drink it though.

 

[Titanium Man]

Any that's ICE Cold in a glass bottle.

 

[danielocean03]

I like Bell's Oberon.

 

[theweakerbrother]

If you don't drink Sun King Cream Ale (not a seasonal), then you're an awful person and a terrorist.

I really like Oberon Ale as a fine summer one.

I just had my first taste of Newcastle's Summer Ale. I thought it was pretty good.

I don't count Leiny's Shady because it is more candy than beer. I love it but I'm just sayin'.

This.

 

[Tydeeh22]

one of 2 beers. either a natty light.. (after a wicked day of work) or a yeungling for pure tastefull enjoyment.

Ditto. But I wish I had some of their Berlinerweisse left. I like a low alcohol sour beer instead of the insipid beverages chocked with citrus juice and spices.

Any that's ICE Cold in a glass bottle.

I can certainly bottle some ICE water for you.
