Nice piece about session beer from Houston Press Food Blog, all about drinking session beers in the summer heat. There's a plug for the Session Beer Project, too, and while the writer (Nicholas L. Hall) says he tends to "edge toward lenience, keeping things under 5 percent," he then interrupts his hymn of praise to Founders All Day IPA -- at 4.7%, as noted below -- to drop this in: "If they could sneak the alcohol down a half percent or so, this beer would be nothing short of miraculous." So I think he's really with us in spirit!
More press, more beers...I'm starting to think that my work here is done.

The Brits say the 4% abv is the proper cutoff for a session beer.
ReplyDeleteThe Brits...also spell "aluminum" with an extra "i". Jolly good for them.
