Here Are The Only Beers You Should Be Drinking This Summer
Fill up your cooler with these brews.
What makes a beer a summer beer? When we think of summer beers, we typically think of light, refreshing, and crisp brews that aren't too heavy or high in alcohol—something you want to sip in the heat or while playing beach volleyball. A stout sounds good if you're curled up by the fireplace, but not so much when lounging by the pool.
No beer is off-limits any time of year; if you enjoy stouts on the beach, so be it! But here are our picks for summer beers as we think of them, whether you're looking for a lager or pilsner or an easy-drinking IPA. So grab your cooler and fill it up with any of these bright, refreshing summer beers (or canned cocktails if that's more your speed).
And if you need help deciphering all the beer styles, check out our guide to types of beer.
