It's time to talk about beer.
Sierra Nevada Summerfest Lager
Memorial Day weekend, the unofficial start of summer... and Lager Season!
Summerfest seems like a good choice to kick it off.

ABV= 5%,  IBU= 32

12oz bottle into a pilsner glass,  pale yellow-gold color, moderate white head left slight lacing. 
Nose is lightly malt-sweet with a subtle grassy tone.
Flavor has a slight citrus tang to supplement what the aroma predicted.
Smooth, light mouthfeel, very refreshing. 
Finishes cleanly, a very slight grassy/peppery hoppiness in the aftertaste.
My only negative is it's just a bit understated; a little stronger flavor would be perfect.

I'll still go through 2 or 3 cases by the end of summer!

I need to pick some of this up. The heat has finally arrived here.

Yep, we're mid-80s in Cincinnati, another few weeks we'll have 90 degrees and 90% humidity.
It's lager season!
