    I saw the Abita strawberry last night but went with Purple Haze instead.... I'm going to have to go back and pick some up to try now!

    +1 to Troegs Cultivator. Basically spring in a bottle.

    Yes, but I sorely miss their Honey Double Maibock.

    Right on. My favorite summer beer is Ten Fidy from the previous winter. :grinning:

    Ironically, that - along with Founders IS - is also one of my favorite session beers. My sessions tend to be rather short and usually end with me sleeping.

    Favorite spring time release: Founders KBS
    Favorite spring/summer time beer: Sierra Nevada Kellerweis and Allagash White. New Belgium Mothership was one of my go-to beers, too bad it was discontinued.

    A couple of weeks ago, I was in a small store and I saw a case of Hoptimum. It was sitting in the aisle, stacked up with other beers. So, I opened it up, and there were 3 four-packs inside. 2014 edition. I bought 'em all, about $9 per. It is still quite delicious, and at 10.4 ABV, ya kinda gotta be careful on the consumption! :slight_smile:

    Great Lakes Rye of the Tiger is a nice April-May beer.

    My go to Spring/Summer beer around here is Smartmouth's Alter Ego Saison. I think it's a bit better than the BA rating but it's ubiquitous on tap in VA and comes in cans... I'm a big fan.

    For one that's readily available nationally, I think Enjoy By has been my favorite so far this Spring.
