Brooklyn brewery: Summer Ale

I've been buying mostly variety pack these days and I'll write about them at some point. Especially the Blue Point brewery, which makes decent beer but puts some stupid number of blueberry infused beers, which made me fed up with the blueberry for some time. Anyway, I went back to Brooklyn Brewery variety pack and now the seasonal beer is the 'Summer ale'. And man, it is indeed hot and sticky as hell at the moment. This is a summer ale in the old British school of brewing, essentially a very pale ale, that is as refreshing as a lager when cold, but still manages to have some real taste. There is subtle hop and bitter and maybe a bit too much sweetness for the summer, but all in all a decent choice for these days.
