Beer drinkers of the world, are you sick of long-winded brew reviews? Do you give a damn if a craft beer has "subtle notes of star anise" or "grassy, herbal flavors with a hint of pine resin?" Could you care less what region of Belgium the brewmaster vacationed to last summer? Then, welcome, beer buddy, to the first of many Beer Me! posts on Guy Gourmet.

Beer Me! will deliver quick beer recommendations with all the information you need to know—and nothing more. No geeky beer-brewing technical terminology. No bottles you have to age five years before you can enjoy them. No bull. Just read up, then crack one open.

Name: Summer Ale
Brewer: Narragansett, Providence, RI
Style: Blonde Ale
ABV: 4.2%
Drink It: The only problem with spending time on the beach or on the boat is that you always end up drinking crap beer. Indeed, the “no glass,” rule limits you to cans, and cans, unfortunately, tend to be filled with mass produced swill. Yeah, there are a few craft brewers making great canned beer, but cans are likely going to be filled with IPA, stout, or some other style too heavy and alcoholic for you to gulp in the sun all day.
Which is why we love ‘Gansett Summer Ale. It’s never overwhelming, has a bright flavor that’s not too fruity, and it goes down smooth on a hot day. Oh, and the kicker? Those cans are 16 ounces, and the price is about eight bucks for six of them. Party on, gentlemen.
