It’s that time of year. The kids are heading back to college, back to school shopping is in full force. Some might say the lazy hazy days of summer are over. But need I remind you that the astrological summer season lasts until September 22nd this year?! That’s right, you still have a few more days of the summer left and what better way to enjoy the waning season than with a Yards Summer Crush? This delicious beer from Yards Brewing is a smooth-drinking wheat beer brewed with orange and lime zest. As the label states, it brings the “refreshment to the shore, the front stoop, the rooftop, and everywhere else you celebrate summer.” Personally, I love the label art. A beautiful orange peel sunset disappearing into the ocean horizon. As the sun sets on summer 2021, crush one more can or bottle before the dawning of a new day.
