    Should there be a distinction made amongst European and Mexican-styled Vienna Lagers as we make recommendations?

    For example, I think the Mexican variants like Dos Equis Ambar use adjuncts to some degree.

    Sierraveza makes me do things I normally disapprove of, like put lime wedges in my beer. But it's just so damn good. I bought the mix pack for the kolsch the first time. I bought it for the sierraveza the next couple times after that. SN is crazy if they don't sell it as a stand alone next year. If I could 12 packs of it I might not drink except sierraveza and pilsner urquell all summer long.

    12-packs of cans of Sierraveza and/or Kölsch would be a dream. Also, I wish 12-packs of Summerfest cans and Nooner cans weren't so difficult to find.

    Obviously the Oktoberfests get a lot of love here, but besides that, Sierra Nevada's lager program is woefully underrated and underhyped. Of the major distributing breweries, I think there's no question that SN is the best at lagers (even over Boston Beer Co., though Boston Lager is still a very good beer), and I think they even give some of the regional and smaller brewers that specialize in lagers a run for their money.

    A dream in which I could slumber on.
