]]> Spring is finally here, and that means all kinds of exciting things for foodies like us! Beer is one of the most seasonal drinks out there, and it is finally time to put away the heavy, dark beers of winter and move onto something a little lighter and refreshing for the warmer season. Get prepared for spring by seeking out these beer styles at your local shop!

Gose

This tangy, salty German beer style has undergone a surge in popularity over the past decade or so. Fruity and low in alcohol, this is a perfect beer for sitting on the patio on a warm spring day or for mowing the lawn.

Kolsch

Another German beer comes in on the list of spring delights to try. Hailing from the city of Cologne, Kolsch is a pale, low-hop, highly-drinkable beer whose warm-fermentation brewing process leads to a more flavorful end product than most lagers.

Saison

Funky, floral, and downright unique, saisons are the final beer that you should add to your shopping list this spring. Fermented using natural bacteria that impart an unmistakable taste on the beer, Belgian breweries were the first to perfect this style which can be made using a wide variety of flavors.

]]> Winter is fully underway! The days are shorter, the nights are longer, and our thermometers are getting nice and low. Although most people tend to opt for more dark stouts and porters during the cold months of the year, there’s still plenty of room to enjoy IPAs as well. Indeed, lighter beers are also quite popular during this time of year, contrary to what many people say. IPAs are always a favorite, and here are three recommendations to add to your winter grocery list!

Session IPA

Session IPAs are a big trend in this beer style, offering the hoppy and fruity flavor of a regular IPA while lowering the style’s alcohol content and heaviness. Session IPAs typically clock in around 3.5%-4.5% ABV, making them a perfect option to drink on those long patio evenings or while doing yard work.

New England IPA

Looking for a beer that bursts with fruit flavors? New England IPAs are a perfect choice! Spring tends to liven our senses and awake our taste buds, and the heavy tropical notes of the hop-light NEIPA style is a perfect complement to the turning of the calendar.

Belgian IPA

Belgian beers are known for being funky and fresh, and this trademark carries over to the Belgian IPA beer style. Belgian yeasts add a funkiness to the classic hop-heavy flavor of an IPA, making a unique creation that’s a must for die-hard beer lovers.

]]> Beer lovers throughout the world have become more and more obsessed with the number of hops in their beer. This ingredient, which is used in all beer styles to add flavor and a touch of bitterness to the final product, is prominent in several varieties that are commercially available.

Are you a hop lover or looking to get your feet wet in the world of hoppy beers? Try these styles!

India Pale Ale

India Pale Ales are probably the most well-known and popular hoppy beer on the market. With a variety of different styles that are suited for all tastes, do some experimenting and discover which one you most like, whether it’s the fruity New England IPA or the malty English IPA.

Pale Ale

Pale Ales are like a toned-down version of India Pale Ales. If you’re a little wary about the bitterness of beer, this could be a good place for you to start making inroads in the hoppy beer world.

Barley Wine

Are you looking to try a beer style that’s a little more unique? Barley wines have alcohol contents that typically range from 8% to 12%, hence their names, and are packed full of sweet malty flavors that contrast with intense hop bitterness.

Beer lovers know that our suds preferences tend to change with this new season, as we opt for lighter and more herbal and fruity beers after preferring dark stouts and porters during the cold months of the year.

Mmmm looks like NEIPA with a bit of a West Coast IPA kick. The thick mouthfeel (pause) of a New England IPA gives you all those joosey hop flavors, but then immediately after you get that nice bitterness kick. This is basically the best of both worlds beer, that I've ever had. Awesome work, @bottlelogicbrewing and @trilliumbrewing .

]]> As the cold weather rolls in and the holiday season approach, it’s time to put away your Oktoberfest and lager beers and start to look for heavier winter options!

Here is a selection of four craft beers that you must try this winter.

Great Lakes Christmas Ale

This Cleveland brewery’s Christmas Ale is now a nationwide favorite. Full of honey, cinnamon, and ginger flavors, it’s a great beer that will help you warm up and get into the holiday spirit.

Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout

Founders’ KBS is one of the highest-rated craft beers on Earth, and it’s best enjoyed in the winter. This complex stout is aged in bourbon barrels, adding a woody and liquor-infused taste to a beer that has notes of vanilla, chocolate, and coffee.

Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale

IPAs might not be the most popular winter beers, but Sierra Nevada’s yearly Celebration IPA proves that they can be great when it’s cold out too! Its hop bite is perfectly complimented by malt sweetness. Yum!

Troegs The Mad Elf

Cherries and chocolate are the protagonists of this Belgian Strong Dark Ale, which is just perfect when sitting in front of the fireplace. Its quirky label is festive and fun to look at, too!
