Uncrate went on a campaign to find the official beer for Summer ‘06, a.k.a., the hottest f*cking summer ever. They drank six different summer beers—I’ve poured more kinds onto a drunk 37-year-old waitress at Mardi Gras—and declared Harpoon Summer Beer the winner.

Its drinkability was unmatched among the beers we tried, with a citrus-noted, slightly hoppy flavor, and a clean finish.

A six pack of these will run you $10. Drunk enough to tell that waitress your real name but not drunk enough to give her your real address.
