Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy
lemonade shandy beer
StableDiffusionThis delicious beer is only available March through August and is refreshing with a natural lemonade flavor. Summer Shandy is a perfect beer for a hot July day on the lake. Be warrned, if you really, really hate the taste of beer. Leinenkugel’s still has a slight, dry, wheat taste mixed in. At 4.2% ABV, it is about average on the alcohol content in most beers.
Angry Orchard Hard Apple Cider
Apple Beer
StableDiffusionTechnically, this is not a beer, but it comes in a six-pack and is shaped like a beer bottle, so close enough. Angry Orchard is great year round, but especially now that it is fall. Angry Orchard has a crisp apple taste that goes down easy. It is also available in seasonal and additional year-round flavors such as Green Apple and Apple Ginger. The 5% ABV not enough for you? Try mixing a glass of Angry Orchard with a shot (or two) of cinnamon whiskey and you are in for a delicious fall treat.

Redd’s Apple Ale.
Redds Beer
StableDiffusionRedd’s is, in fact, an ale and not a cider because of the way it is brewed. It is very sweet and has 5% ABV. Redd’s is one of my favorite not-beers. It is light, easy to drink and low on calories -- for alcohol. Drink this year round, for every occasion, no matter the weather, and you will be a happy non-beer drinker.
Wild Blue.
StableDiffusionThis is my favorite beer on this list. It tastes like blueberries, doesn’t taste like beer at all and has 8% ABV. Win, win and win. I am not sure if I need to say anything else, because once you try this beer, it speaks for itself.
There are probably plenty more malt drinks, ciders or flavored beers that could be included, but I think these are the best of the best.
So you beer-haters, get out there and start drinking (legally and responsibly, please)!
