Brick West Brewing Co.'s Brick West Pilsner I'll fully admit that I'm one of those people who has mostly made the switch over from craft beer to hard seltzers the past few years. But while seltzer is absolutely refreshing on a hot summer day, there are some days when nothing sounds better than a crisp, light beer. That's when I turn to the Brick West Pilsner, a super drinkable, German-style pilsner that's about 5 percent alcohol by volume. If you have fond memories of cracking open a lighter beer after mowing the lawn, taking a long hike or floating the river, this is the local brew for you. (SAMANTHA WOHLFEIL)
