Wacko Summer Seasonal

Wrapping up my current batch of summer brews is Magic Hat Brewing Company's Wacko Summer Seasonal.  This is definitely one of the more uniquely colored beers I have had in a while.  It poured with a nice thick head and an interesting reddish color in the glass.  Wacko is brewed in the style of an English Ale and fermented with an addition of beet sugar to produce the color and unique sweetness of this hot day thirst quencher.  At 4.5% ABV and only 15 IBUs, this sweet malty brew makes a great choice in the heat of late July and early August.  It's a very light bodied thirst quencher that I highly recommend giving a try.  From the website:

Crisp like the morning, cool like the evening and quenching all day long.  It's the beer that dances to the beat of summer.  Pop the top and set your summer loose.  Wacko is the song of summer. 

The availability of this beer may make it difficult to find... Grab a sixer if you see one sitting in a beer cooler somewhere :)
