A Great Beer for this last Weekend of Summer

Widmer Brothers Citra Blonde Summer Ale. A very drinkable (IMHO) craft beer. Light on the alcohol. Not like some mad scientist beer that's 8 or 10% ABV (although there is a time and a place for that as well).

That does look good! Summer seems to be long gone here already, but that sort of beer would be enjoyable year-round for me.

Sounds really good. Love me some citra hops.

I'm a big fan of the Widmer Pitch Black IPA.

Making me thirsty, will give it a try!

Will be enjoying my last Hoegaarden probably for the year. Great stuff! Then on to the Oktoberfest brews!

Just tried the Widmer Brothers Shaddock IPA on tap at the local brewhouse, wish I had seen this earlier in the summer. It's brewed with grapefruit peel, which plays off the Citra hops nicely. Being a huge DIPA guy, I'm always looking for that piney/citrusy aroma and this has it in spades, not exactly lawnmower beer, but its pretty drinkable at 6.2% abv.
