Spring has Sprung.
Time to think warm, sunny and lazy afternoons. The weather is slowly turning, the days getting longer and your favorite brewery shipping seasonal beers. It’s that time of year where we all find those few beers that just hit the spot as we sit on the deck, cut the grass or just relax over a ball game.
The 8 best Spring Craft Beers to try this summer:
8. Dogfish Head Aprihop
Brewery: Dogfish Head Brewery
An America IPA with an apricot finish. Smooth yet hoppy as expected from an East Coast Favorite.
7. New Belgium Spring Blonde
Brewery: New Belgium Brewing Company
A Golden Ale with a bright copper color. Hints of lemon, pepper and fresh bread finish this CO seasonal.
6. Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA
Brewery: Deschutes Brewery
A crisp IPA with a hint of tangerine, yet no fruit added. Very light and now available year round.
5. Pyramid Strawberry Blonde Saison
Brewery: Pyramid Brewery
A blonde Saison with hints of tart strawberry
4. Shipyard Applehead
Brewery: Shipyard Brewing
A wheat beer with an apple aroma and slight cinnamon finish
3. Grateful Pale Ale
Brewery: Starr Hill Brewery
An easy to drink Pale Ale with huge citrus aroma. Lighter than expected and exceptional VA Craft beer.
2. Cocoa Fuego
Brewery: DuClaw Brewing Co.
A Baltimore stout with a sweet but malty flavor. Roasted malts, espresso and chocolate make it a sweet treat.
1. Mosaic Session IPA
Brewery: Blue Point
A lighter IPA with a tropical feel of pineapple, lemon and mango. The dry yet hoppy finish makes it a summer classic.
