Summer Ale

The main characteristic of the seasonal summer ale is a light and crisp taste.  the trademark of a good seasonal summer ale is wheat. When craft breweries combine wheat and barley together it creates a delightful mash with a light flavor that is both compelling and delicious. Long before there was refrigeration, breweries had to make do with the ingredients they had at the time new batches were being created. According to 'The Kitchn blog', that meant fresh hops and barley that were plentiful during the autumn were perfect for darker, stronger beers. In the spring, when the necessary ingredients were harder to come by, the beers were lighter and less stout.
