Summer Beer Classic drinks to cool off with!

When it comes to summer, beer is definitely the first thing that comes to mind for most people. Whether at a barbecue party, at the beach, or while catching up on TV at home, you’ll always see a cold beer, bringing endless coolness and refreshment.

Beer, with its rich bubbles, refreshing taste, and moderate alcohol content, is the perfect summer drink. Light beers like Lager and Pilsner have a light flavor and moderate acidity, making them perfect with summer dishes like barbecue and fried foods. While darker beers and porter are best enjoyed at slightly higher temperatures, generally speaking, chilled light beers are recommended for summer.

Red wine – light and elegant

Although red wines often give people the impression of being heavy, red wines with lively acidity and soft tannins such as Primitivo Tormaresca Neprica and Malbec Casarena Reserve are also very suitable for drinking in summer when chilled.
