    What easy drinking beers do you like to keep in your fridge when you don't feel like drinking the 10+%ABV heavyweights?

    For purposes of this thread, please keep your entries under 6%ABV.

    I like Fuller's London Pride and Full Sail Amber

    FLP is a darn good choice. While it's in town, Deschutes Pine Mountain Pils...I always have. Heck, I harped for YEARS to Deschutes to bring it back. And it is.:grinning:

    If you like pale ale, then look for any "session" brew. Then you have Sierra Nevada Kellerweiss and Summerfest. If you like sour beers try Westbrook Gose.

    90% of what I drink is under 6%. It's easier to mention what I drink over 6%.

    That's a good one. I've been on dogfish 60 minute lately. It's 6%, but drinks smooth

    Just had Stone Go To IPA for the first time this week. Great hop aroma and taste without being very bitter. And it only clocks in at 4.5% ABV. Going to start keeping it around this summer.

    I love a good Oatmeal Stout (New Holland's The Poet" is my personal favorite). On the lighter side, I also love Bell's Oarsman (a berliner weiss-style ale). Although I can't get it often, I also love Three Floyd's Pride & Joy (an "American Mild" that most of us would call a nice APA). Not sure if any of those hit distro where you are... Cheers!

    Oarsman is great, I can't wait to start seeing it again, I will buy the first six-pack I see. Its a much better easy drinking summer option than Oberon, imo.
