    Try a nice Pilsner such as Victory Prima Pils or Sierra Nevada Summerfest. Or, go for a good hefeweizen, such as Sierra Nevada Kellerweis or any of the great German hefes.

    Coors Banquet. I have a job that sometimes requires long hours in the sun, and a Coors, PBR, or something similar just hits the spot when I should really be drinking plain old H2O...

    Even though I didn't give it such a good rating in the past, Anchor Summer has grown on me the past few Summers.

    Twilight from Deschutes is a favourite summer beer of mine. To be more vague lol, as I don't know who distributes what in your neck o the woods, Kolsch, Helles, hoppy session pale ales, corny lagers and big ass stouts are what I gravitate towards when the mercury, and more importantly the humidity reaches stupid heights.

    Mostly saisons/farmhouses. If you can try Tank 7 from Boulevard Brewing; it's my new go-to.

    I like the session IPA's like Lakefront Extended Session and Founders All Day IPA. I also like the german hefeweizens (and americanized versions) when its hot outside. Dancing Man is one of the best along with Paulaner and Hacker Pschorr.

    With the heat, I tend to drink my beer faster to keep me cool, so I like to steer towards lower ABV beers; otherwise, I get too drunk and my wife hates me. Find myself going towards:
    Westbrook - Gose
    Blue Mountain - Kolsch
    DC Brau - El Hefe Speaks
    Session IPAs in general (Stone, Flying Dog, GI are the main ones I've been drinking)
    Flying Dog - Dead Rise Old Bay Ale
    Dogfish - Festina Peche
    Full Tilt - Camden Cream

    I'm usually grilling or smoking at least once a week. If it's a pay week we usually splurge on a case of Rolling Rock or Corona lite (just tastes better for some reason). Lately though we've been trying out newer stuff.

    My favs have been Witte and Saison styles so, Martens Witte is really nice, light and kind of fruity. Victory Helios is a Saison I can only get in Bombers, which is sort of a bummer. Also they are pretty strong so I have to be careful whilst tending the open flame.
