Great summary! Earlier today I was looking for inspiration on what summer beer to brew next. Just started fermentation of a Kölsch. The raspberry wit sounds intriguing :D

[alanman]

Thanks David, this is super useful. I really love the way you presented this also. Looking forward to low alcohol IPA BBQ beer, sounds perfect!

[smallspacesbrewing]

Thanks for this. Many many good ideas. So much to learn from your channel

[markbarber]

Thanks for the video. Yes, your Kölsch recipe is one of my favourite

[tomkandy]

Another lager style I've been making that's popular in warmer weather is rice lager - grain bill of 66% pilsner malt, 22% rice and 11% corn, hopped with Sorachi Ace. Very light and drinkable, like asahi or budweiser but with more flavour.

Useful, informative and interesting as always with your material, bravo David! And, if I may add, I personally brewed the Bohemian Pilsner, the Kolsch, the Vienna Lager and the Neipa (among those you mentioned ;)) and the results were astonishing!
I wish I could have sent you some samples....
The verdant ipa and the raspberry sour are on top of my to do next list (then come the others of course)
I'll be looking forward to your new videos, thank you so much and CHEERS!

[NikitaVorontsov]

I’ll second your Raspberry Sour! Very good drinking summer beer!

[MetalGuru]

Thanks again David. Just what I need right now, some ideas on what to brew next. Thanks mate.

Excellent video David and very helpful👍👍👍

[fugitive]

Ooo tasty low abv IPA - can't wait!

[kenfowler]

Great video mate! I actually made the first two a while back and they were fantastic! Might have a go at the Kolsh one day. Keep up the good work (I actually prefer the recipe ones ;)
Cheers mate!

[ShortCircuitedBrewers]

Oh dang I thought bigfoot had stopped by to help you brew!! Lol I need to brew some of these soon!! Gotta try the raw ale! Great video as as always David! 👍🍻

[davidsales]

Spot on. I agree with those styles for summer✌🏾😎✌🏾. Fermenting lager under pressure, still needs lagering time either keg or bottle for couple if weeks around 3 to 5 ⁰C, correct?

[lvory]

I can't wait for the low ABV IPA recipe!

[maclafm]

You should to a video guide on American Wheat beers. One of my favorite summer time styles!

[billabongviews]

Write names on little pieces of paper, mix in a hat and pull out 1 by one. This is your brew list for the next 6 months - Simple!! haha :)
From the ones I have made I would be hugely confident the rest will be great also! And, they are on my brew list Cheers, David!

[thebird]

Surprised to not see APA or hefe! But I love all of the styles you posted

[lesermusic]

You could have also added golden ale, it's my all time favourite summer beer

Hi David I just got the ingredients for a Kölsch, look forward to make it. I purchased a grain basket for my homemade brewing Bucket instead brewing in a bag, if you remember I made a major mistake, too big a grain bill. I was thinking of using the grain basket for the Kölsch and let it set over knight at 65°C and no circulation. Would that change the beer, and if not can I do that with all beer style ?
