For General Sipping: Pale Ale or Pilsner

Pilsner is the classic beer -- crisp, clean and dry, it’s always a crowd-pleaser. The light lager traditionally from Bohemia is excellent for anytime sipping. Pale ale has a stronger hop flavor -- it’s less super-charged than an IPA, but it will still satisfy the hopheads in your life. We like Dale’s Pale Ale from Oskar Blues brewery, not in the least because it comes from a can. Not only are cans easier to keep cold and transport, but “cans are great for the beer because they block out the sun which can ruin beer,” says Beaune.
