In this episode of The Beer Craft, Ben and Andrew dive into Northwest Brewers Supply's new Summer Brewing Series—four recipes designed to keep you brewing through the hottest months of the year.

We tackle the biggest reasons brewers put the kettle away when summer arrives: warm fermentation spaces, busy schedules, and the misconception that you need a fermentation fridge to make great beer. Then we introduce four beers built to solve those challenges.

You'll hear the story behind:

• Easy Summer Blonde – the perfect comeback batch for brewers who haven't brewed in a while.

• Lemondrop Wheat – a crisp, citrus-forward American wheat built for patios and sunny afternoons.

• Hot Garage Pale Ale – proof that with the right yeast and recipe, summer brewing is still on the menu.

• Sunset Amber – a smooth, malt-forward amber made for BBQs, fire pits, and those Northwest evenings when the hoodie comes back out.

Whether you're dusting off your brew kettle after a long break or looking for your next seasonal recipe, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you brew with confidence all summer long.
