    I'm quite familiar with Winter and Fall Seasonals, but the next few months are a blind spot for me.

    What are your favorite in the next couple of months?

    (point me in the right direction if this has been done 100 times)

    Some of the ones I usually buy in Spring/Summer are:

    Victory Summer Love
    Anderson Valley Summer Solstice*
    Troegs Cultivator Helles Bock*
    Bell's Oberon
    Elysian Superfuzz Blood Orange Pale Ale
    Narragansett Summer Ale*

    And of course, Founders KBS in the Spring is always a favorite.

    (* great beach beers as they come in cans)

    I've had a fair share of those, but the others do sound tasty! I'll check them out.

    Thanks,

    Cisco Summer of Lager is pretty good - I usually pick up some of that. Doubt it gets to Colorado. I'm curious about this as well as my tastes tend towards milder beers in the summer - even towards the dreaded AAL's. Looking forward to what others have to say. Haven't tried Narragansett Summer yet, I'll definitely give that a go this year.

    Picked up oberon this weekend, a little earlier for it, but a nice summer day on the deck is perfect.

    Reubeus will be out soon, summer in a bottle.

    I didn't realize Hoptimum was a seasonal... I'll have to give it a try.

    Two of my favorite spring/summer seasonal beers are an overlap with @ShanePB: Troegs Cultivator Helles Bock and Victory Summer Love.

    I was excited to recently learn about the Victory 2015 Variety Pack: “The 2015 Summer Selections case will include Summer Love Ale, Whirlwind Witbier, Kühl Kölsch and Prima Pils."

    This Variety Pack will include one of my longtime favorites of Summer Love (my favorite Blonde Ale) and it will have Victory’s Kolsch – first time released in bottles! Woo-Hoo!

    I also greatly enjoy drinking the Victory Wit and Prima Pils.

    Yup, very much looking forward to the Victory Summer Variety Pack!!

    Cheers to Victory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Summer Love sounds delicious! I'll just ignore the ratings since it's a blonde :slight_smile:
