Why yes it is....one of the few beers I can truly call light and crisp with just that hint of strawberry on the finish.
To those of you who say ewwwww-I say try it with something sweet on the back porch as the sun sets slowly in the west.

Really good after a day of pulling weeds or at the end of a day on the beach. Good stuff.

I had a Mama's when I was in Denver a few months ago. A little too hoppy for me. What I found was my new favorite… Agave Wheat!!

After watching the documentary “Beer Wars”, I will never drink anything made by Anheuser-Busch, Miller, and Coors. The monopoly these brewers have & influence they have through lobbying is outrageous. Makes it nearly impossible for any micro brews to get their product to the consumers. Federal law mandates distributers must transport the beer from the brewery to the consumer, and guess who owns the distributors?

There's a tear in my beer cuz im cryin' for ya dear...you are on my lonely mind...

Where's my Stetson?

Never heard of that one yet Sip. I'll have to watch the shelves at the local stores.
We have tons of micro breweries in Michigan, most of the stuff tastes like flowers to me.
Shiner is an excellent brewery. I like all their products.

Wasn't that a bar in Panama?? circa 1969??

...Makes some really good beer, including their Pilsener. It's famous for being the first microbrewed beer to be "bottled" in cans, thanks to those tree hugging Coloradans.

Wifie and I visited their place in Lyons, CO, last year on vacation and enjoyed sampling their other beers, too, including my favorite, Dale's Pale Ale, a really nicely balanced, "all rounder."

Here in NC, we are truly blessed with GREAT breweries, so I prefer to "keep it local."

Seems like every state that has good water, ingredients and folks with know-how can provide the experience you shared. Now you know how good beer in this country used to taste. You can't go back...lol.

There are some fantastic breweries in CA. If you like the Pilsener style, one that's GREAT in the summer, try the one from Lagunitas. An award winner, it's made up in Petaluma, or however you spell that. Those of us in the East coast can enjoy a nice one from Victory up in PA.

Shop local, y'all.

PS: Second the rec to stream "Beer Wars" on Netflix. The big three have an absolute stranglehold on convenience stores and many grocery chains.

Fat Tire is good stuff, and my father has become a big fan of their 1554 black ale. I've really taken a liking to New Belgium's spring seasonal, 'Dig'. Hoppy, but not overpowering like some IPAs can be. Very drinkable, a good "session beer" as they call it on beeradvocate.com.

Duvel. Nothing more need be said.
