    Sierra Nevada, Oskar Blues, Bells, Founders, etc. Also a bunch of local summer styles that are fresh from the brewery.

    Lots of Yuengling, two hearted, and zombie dust in my garage. I also hide trade beers there, so it's an awesome indiana fridge sometimes.

    Carton Boat, Anderson Valley Gose (any flavor), Coors Light, really anything pale under 5%.

    Honestly it is whatever is on sale or falls into the "Get it while you can" category. Right now it consists of 2 - High West Victory at Seas, 3 Sip of Sunshines and 10 Super Session 8s all of which are abnormally good for my garage beer. A month from now it may be outdated 3.99 bargain bin beer.

    Another question.... what are you all working on while drinking this beer?

    I am trying to get a brass era Maxwell on the road. It's a long process.

    I do a lot of messing around out there mostly... wood, metal, whatever. I do have a1968 Corvette that I drive a lot more than work on these days, thankfully, but she does require more maintenance than a modern car of course.

    Good luck on the Maxwell. Sounds like a lot of fun!

    Hmm well I would say it would be something like Jester King El Cedro, or maybe an Odell's IPA.

    Last year it was Founders All Day IPA and PC Pils. I love the 15 packs. If I had distro, FW Easy Jack would make it in.

    It used to be New Glarus Spotted Cow, Schell's (Grain Belt) Nordeast and Summit Saga when we lived in MN.

    Now, here in greater Portland, OR we have an embarrassment of riches and so far we have Hop Valley Citrus Mistress for the IPA. We haven't quite nailed the right lager. Cream ales - or the equivalent thereof -are a foreign species.

    Suggestions are welcome. We like to keep it local, and know all about SN, Oskar Blues, etc.

    Basement garage for small projects, but most of my time is spent in my fly tying room. TV, record player, recliner and fly rods,nets, waders, 8' desk and multiple drawers of fly tying material. When I'm tying flies it's usually a high ABV stout or DIPA. I'm not rich either. If you fly fish the reason you aren't rich is pretty obvious. And you think craft beer is expensive....

    Another vote for Hamms... cheap, accessible and I drank them so fast they can never get a chance to warm up

    Yuengling for sure, and Stiegel radler/zitrone. I've been really enjoying Stag lately, so that might make it ways into the rotation this coming summer.

    I don't have a garage, but if I did I imagine it would be the same choice as my general, warm weather, outdoor beer choice--cold, hoppy pilsners in cans. :slight_smile:

    Depends on what I am doing.

    Lets go with "cold." That usually fits the bill.

    I live in my garage in the summer. Another vote here for Hamms! Also, any of the Founder's 15 packs.

    I swear that beer disappears as soon as I open it. Love it.

    Last spring into summer I stocked and consumed a few Founders 15pk's of PC Pils, and threw in a few Oberons and some Weihenstephaner wheats. All good warm weather garage/lawn mower beers.

    All Day IPA. It's nice when the 15pack goes on sale around here for $12.99
