The brewmasters over at New Belgium have always been fans of high-proof, hoppy IPAs and equally intimidating Belgian beers. But over the past few years, they’ve also stepped up their game for making crushable, summer-ready sippers—and their latest Summer Bliss Wheat Beer is the best yet.
At just 5.5 percent alcohol and 9 IBUs, Summer Bliss is about as easy going as an inner tube float trip on a breezy day. Generous additions of citrus and tropical fruits give it a refreshing and juicy character, rich with lemon and mango as well as hints of tangerine and pineapple. If you’re at all a fan of Blue Moon, this is everything you love about the iconic wheat beer wrapped up into one road-trip friendly can. But buy it while you can, because this seasonal beer tends to sell out fast every summer.
