Just a quick note, since I'm finishing a six-pack and didn't want to not tell you how good this beer is. It's intended to be a more interesting session beer, at 4%, and definitely succeeds. It's got some Berliner-weisse style tartness, which makes it refreshing and quite drinkable. It'd be great for summer, but it's still good now. And while I don't usually comment on labels, the art on this one is really lovely. Point being: very strongly recommended.

Dogfish Head Namaste
I guess I left this in the fridge too long - it's explicitly a summer beer, basically a Dogfish riff on a white ale. Big yeast nose, maybe hints of the coriander and lemongrass that are in there. Lighter in flavor than expected, but a pretty typical white ale profile. It's not the best white ale I've had, but it's surprisingly straightforward and not-crazy for Dogfish. Quite drinkable. I'd definitely have this again - preferably not in the limited-run large bottle, though.
