I figured you should hear it here first.
We first stumbled upon this brew at the Pasadena Whole Foods – and then after that first time, tracking it down again proved harder. Each time the beer guy either at that Whole Foods or the Glendale location would say, oh, come back on TUESDAY – we might get some more in then, or, oh yes, we’re sold out, that one is quite popular, or worst yet, you know that’s only a seasonal brew, it will be gone completely one day. There’s a reason it’s flying off of shelves – the Anderson Valley Brewing Co. Summer Soltice Cerveza Crema is kind of like a Corona and a Fat Tire made a baby. It has the lightness of a Mexican brew coupled with the spicy creamy lightly fruity quality of a Belgian-influenced beer. It’s so smooth and so easy to drink that you and your loved one(s) can easily decimate a 6 pack, thereby sending you back into the world on a crazy beer-goose-chase. The last time I had a chance to buy this I bought 2 12-packs and should have bought the 3rd one left on the shelf. I should start hoarding them now.
