Ale
I drink about 1-2 per month anymore, so I probably shouldn't get a vote. The truth is that when I feel like a beer, just about anything will do.

Lager
Lager. I do like darker ales and stouts but only occasionally. But I'll drink a Czech Pilsner all day everyday
Jeremiah Johnson makes a killer vanilla porter. -
Lager
Don't get me wrong, I love ales, but I can't imagine a summertime with out lager. I just doesn't work.
And I drink a lot more bourbon than the ale snobs here so I can always go that route when something darker and stronger is needed.

Lager
I burned out on the “faggy” IPAs, and now lean either bourbon or tequila. Had a Bodi a couple weeks ago and was, “Now I remember why I drank this”…my taste buds had been rehabbed. Agree, hot weather = lager…

Ale
Sours, lambics, pale ales, and lighter Belgians are all excellent in the summer and are often 5% or lower abv.
Waaaaaay more variety on the ale side of things.

Lager
Australia has way better variety of sub 5% pale ale than the US. Truly fantastic stuff at like 4.5% give or take. Even then, if I'm on 6 to 10 session beers type of Saturday, I'd still rather have Coors Banquet or Pacifico/Modello. Or the finest German or Czech Pils.

Lager
Rainier has been my go to for a long time, lately I usually start off w/ a couple Modelo Cheladas. If I'm feeling fancy I'll grab some Georgetown Roger's Pils or Sapporo.
I think I drank too much IPA for several years cuz I got way burned out on it. My gut just can't handle drinking those all day and night anymore. I'll grab some Pale Ale every now and again though.
I dig a nice stout in the rainy season as well. -
Lager
I make a fucking killer michelada from scratch.
Modello
lime juice
Clamato
Dimitri's Bloody Mary Seasoing
Tapatillo Hot Sauce

Lager
Good chit. I need to try that one. I have yet to replicate the Modelo formula, but whatever they put in there is magical. Especially when you're hungover and need to get back on track.
