Part 2 - Best Beers For 2008 - July to December
This is part two to a two part article on the best beers, by month, of 2008. To read part one please click here. Enjoy!

Month: July Beer: Spotted Cow Brewery: New Glarus Brewing Company

Cask conditioned ale has been the popular choice among brews since long before prohibition. New Glarus continues this pioneer spirit with their Wisconsin farmhouse ale. Brewed with flaked barley and the finest Wisconsin malts. Expect this ale to be fun, fruity and satisfying.

Month: August Beer: Trappist Westvleteren Abt 12 Brewery: Westvleteren Abdij St. Sixtus

This beer sells for close to $600 a case ($25 a bottle) so if you can find it, and afford it, you will be in store for a real treat. Westy 12 is the least outputted style by this brewery and it is shipped in small batches all around the world. The flavor is of deep malt combined with bitter chocolate and hops which runs velvety across the palate.

Month: September Beer: Dogfish Head Ninety Minute IPA Brewery: Dogfish Head Craft Brewery

A big beer with a great malt backbone that stands up to the extreme hopping rate. A four pk will set you back around $11, a more reasonable choice for the pocketbook than the Westy 12. This beer is a perfect choice to begin prepping your palate for the fall and winter brews.

Month: October Beer: Leinenkugel's Oktoberfest Brewery: The Jacob Leinenkugel Brewing Company

Leinie's Okoberfest probably isn't the best Oktoberfest beer on the planet but I love it. And during a time of year when I drink a lot of beer, it's easy on my wallet. Leinie's has been producing their version of Oktoberfest since 2001. It is brewed with Munich, Caramel, and Pale malts along with Hallertan, Tettnang, Perle, and Cluster hops. This beer is an inexpensive treat.
