"Ironic is the fact that the more interested I get in beer, the less I drink of it. In my younger days I drank a lot, but was not ready to learn about good and great beer."
Are you a new reader, then Summer beers
Over at Hedonist Beer Jive, Jay has compiled a list of good sommer beer tasted this year. Check it out on the above link to his post.
Let's check the list out:
- Blue Moon Belgian White - the winner
- ANCHOR SUMMER BEER
- ANDERSON VALLEY SUMMER SOLSTICE CERVEZA CREMA
- DRAKE'S HEFE-WEIZEN
- HARPOON SUMMER BEER
- PYRAMID HEFEWEIZEN
- WIDMER HEFEWEIZEN
If I compiled a list like that, it would look wierd, because I have a lot of strong beers and not anything summer-like. Danish microbrew and craft brews would clear the score table. In fact i drank only my own beer yesterday. I had a Dark Czech Lager, a red ale, a porter and a couple of pale ales.

Thanks for the link and good words. I'm definitely curious as to what beer Denmark has to offer; given the proximity to Germany there has to be some excellent local brands? I only remember drinking English beers my one night in Copenhagen....
A lot has happned in the danish beer scene the last couple of years. Now a brewery open just about every month. This is a high rate considering that we are only 5.5 million people in Denmark. The development, will of cause wear off when the market is saturated. I believe the the first brewery will go bankrupt within a year. The competition is geting harder by the minute.
