Summer Solstice Cerveza Crema

My friend Vanesa recommended this beer to me with mucho gusto the other day when we were frolicking around Whole Foods (she works there, and is quite the sales person).

I’m a big fan of the Anderson Valley Brewing Company, out of Boonville, CA- their Boont Amber Ale makes a regular appearance in my fridge. But their recent release, the Summer Solstice Cerveza Crema is my newest love.

It’s creamy, a bit chocolaty, and very very smooth. A six-pack at Whole Foods was only $9. Our summer days are numbered, so I recommend you get your little butt to the store and go get a pack or two NOW!

Plus I love their beer cap!!!

Looks like they also release a Winter Solstice version every year. Can’t wait to try that!

Merriberry visits the brewery often when they are up in Mendocino. It’s about two hours north of San Francisco- we gotta go sometime!
