The season has just begun. The neighborhood is alive with activity. I walked outside to get the paper today, and what do you know? All of my neighbors are out cleaning up from the winter, cleaning gutters, raking, fertilizing and cutting the grass, bringing out the patio furniture, and rolling out the best part of summer: the barbeque (oh boy!). Doesn’t that seem like a lot of work for one day? WHEW!!! Well, how about taking a nice, little break and pouring yourself a nice, cold beer.

I don’t want to speak too soon, but I think spring has finally sprung. This is when the beer department here at Nino’s gets filled up with some amazing beers for the spring season. Here are a couple of my suggestions for the spring season.

New Belgium, Heavy Melon Ale Six Pack

This delicious ale is super refreshing and light with aromas of cucumber, papaya, and citrus. On the palate, it’s juicy and makes your mouth water, ending with a crisp finish.

Perrin Brewing, No Rules Grapefruit IPA Six Pack

This is the one to pound on your patio; it has delicious aromas of citrus and tropical fruit. It’s very light and delicate with a grapefruit tartness and a clean finish.

Kona Brewing, Lemongrass Luau Six Pack

This is a cool and refreshing blonde ale with a touch of wheat malt, lemon grass, and ginger. It’s perfect for picnics or sitting around with friends.

SPRING IS HERE! Hope you have an exciting season this year.

Cheers,
Simone.
