Five Great Beers for an Elite Brands Endless Summer


The mercury is rising, the heat is on, and you are thirsty!  Yes incredibly thirsty!

At this point a hopped-up IPA isn’t going to cut it.  A full bodied stout is going to result straight in nap time.  What you need is a refreshing, delicious drink-able brew that is going to cool you right down.  Instead of bland, indiscernible flavors, ever think of experiencing orange, vanilla and coriander in your beer?  With that in mind we recommend trying these five brews – a new summer  selection that is sure to become a new standard in your beer drinking repertoire.

CISCO SUMMER OF LAGER - 5.6% ABV
A light lager released at the beginning of the summer when Nantucket is just getting it's groove on! It's a classic Bavarian style lager with a delicious malt palate and an assertive noble hop finish. Hints of citrus give this lager a light, refreshing flavor perfect for hot summer nights.

SANKATY LIGHT LAGER 3.9% ABV
This is a light American Golden Lager. This delicious creation is light-bodied with tremendous balance and distinct hop character. At 3.8% alcohol and 126 calories this light beer has true flavor and body while being easy to drink and easier on the waistline.

HITACHINO NEST WHITE ALE - 5.0% ABV
Light golden in color, Hitachino Nest White Ale is a refreshing mildly hopped Belgian styled beer with a complex flavor of coriander, orange peel, and nutmeg.

RAYON VERT BELGIAN-STYLE PALE ALE - 7.0% ABV
A bold layering of hops finds balance from traditional malts. Bottle conditioning with fresh ale yeast and Brettanomyces finishes the beer, adding a delightful effervescence, dryness and continuously evolving character. Rayon Vert is Green Flash.

 SHIPYARD SUMMER ALE 5.1% ABV 
A traditional American Wheat beer.  With its inviting golden color, mellow malted wheat flavor and less hoppy characteristics, it’s sure to please those looking for a clean, cool taste sensation on long, hot summer days.
