Lighten up, already!

No, I'm not counseling Statfreak to take a Xanax before the next game -- although that might be good for his heart I'm talking light beers that I would actually drink. Session beers for everyone!!!!

It's good to hear and nice to see that more and more American breweries are starting to make more of these types of beers. I love a good English Mild for parties, plus it goes with pretty much any kind of food imaginable, which makes it a nice thing to have in the ole kegerator.

Plus, as a homebrewer, making lighter beers like that is damn challenging and fun. I've got a very solid mild on tap right now, and have made a killer Bavarian-style lager, all under 5%. I'm as proud of those beers as when I make a big Belgian Triple.
