This American Pale Ale has a crisp and clean, lighter taste, featuring Mosaic hops, and is well balanced with a light malt body and soft bitterness, making it a perfect beer for summer.

2. Lush IPA by Fremont Brewing

In the last few years, this India Pale Ale has won awards and certificates of excellence. The aroma is tropical with melon, citrus and grassy, and the flavor is a medium sweetness with moderate bitterness and a toasted biscuit backbone.

The Vienna Style Lager has the smooth drinkability of a lager, with a rich, complex toasty malt flavor, complemented by subtle floral and spicy hops. This amber-colored beer is available in 16 oz cans, perfect for throwing in your cooler for long summer weekends.

4. XXXXX Stout by Pike Brewing

This reddish-black color robust stout contains a full-bodied, velvety malt texture with hints of chocolate, licorice and dark roasted coffee. The XXXXX Stout is ideal for cooler summer evenings or as a dessert beer.

5. The Gateway Creamsicle (Nitro) by Rooftop Brewing Company

There is nothing like a hot summer day, stopping at the ice cream truck for creamsicles. That’s why Rooftop Brewing Company recreated the creamsicle flavor in this Gateway Dry-Hopped Pale Ale that has fresh orange and a vanilla bean.
