I heartily concur with this. I’d very much like to see the “imperial” craze throw a 180 and turn in the direction of breweries making delicious, flavorful session beers in the range of, say, 4% to no more than 6% ABV. One of the reasons that I’m as fond of Anchor Brewing as I am is that they generally (with the notable exception of Foghorn) keep their beers in a reasonable range of alcohol content. For example, Steam is 4.9%, Liberty is 5.9%, and Summer is 4.5%. They even offer Small Beer (which I must admit I’ve never seen or had) at 3.3%.
On that note, if anyone
has seen Anchor Small Beer for sale in Western Pennsylvania, please let me know.
