    It's 70 degrees in Berkeley today and I'm enjoying a Rogue Juniper Pale Ale (delicious, by the way), but I wonder if anyone has another good warm-weather, afternoon beer, that is still very full-flavor but maybe a bit lighter?

    Thanks!

    P.S. I blog at SimplyBeeresistible.wordpress.com

    I am rushing to drink my Imperials before summer as it getting warmer by the day. Wish I had another month or two of colder weather.

    Every Sierra Nevada beer I've ever tried has given me a stuffy nose (allergy, perhaps?). But maybe I'll give Nooner a try!

    Allergies are so strange, sometimes. Perhaps that's due to the bottle conditioning? Some of their beers have a small dosage of yeast in the bottle.

    The Nooner is a Pilsner, in any event, so it's different from their main beers (except Summerfest)- and it's a nice and dry/hoppy take on the style to boot. I'm sure it's also great in the sunshine, as the name suggests.

    Its an even 0 degrees here so I'm not thinking warm weather beer. But when I get to that point I'm sure I'll be enjoying some Duvel

    Sixpoint Sweet Action, Victory Prima Pils, Victory Headwaters all hit the spot when it's warm out. Unfortunately here in PA it's below 0 right now.

    You won't be disappointed! Lot's of flavor and you shouldn't have any issue finding it for a good price! Deschutes gets overlooked a lot because they are big and easy to find so they don't have that "rare" aspect to them, but they put out some great beers!
