I, for one, would never put my mouth to Miller, Coors, or Bud. I find Franziskaner bad enough...

Second the recommendation of Belgian fruit beers--I like cherry more than the raspberry, although raspberry seems easier to find. They usually have a couple varieties of Lindemann's at Trader Joe's, and a large selection at BevMo.

You might also try hard cider--mostly made from apples, although you can find pear, peach, and raspberry, also. Occasionally they have Blackthorn at Trader Joe's, otherwise BevMo has a good selection.

At the moment, I have a couple bottles of Samuel Smith's in my (beer) fridge.

The Samual Smith's Organic fruit beers are excellent.

Beer'd double IPA. Lovely hoppy goodness.

This place just opened a few months ago and is only open Friday night and weekends. Yes, they are that small but their beer is so good :D

My wife loves Aprihop but DFH no longer ships to WI. Had some friends bring up a case last weekend so she's quite happy now.

I have cider, actually--I had no idea they made fruit beers, too. Checked and found I can get at least the raspberry around here.

Thanks for the tip!

Since we're talking about fruity things, just picked up this year's New Belgium La Folie.

No beers in the fridge only a bottle of limoncello, prosecco and some aspalls imperial vintage 2012 cider. Might crack open a bottle whilst watching the Masters Golf

A growler of Iron Hill Brewery Dark Ritual, although I'm thinking I'm going to start drinking that as soon as I get home from work!
