Hangar 24 Orange Wheat
The juiciest and lightest of the lot, this sunny beer is made with Californian oranges, pureed whole and added to the brew. It delivers a tangy hit of citrus while remaining airy, so it’s perfect for washing down greasy snacks.
$6.90 at Thirsty – The Beer Shop
Baird Rising Sun Pale Ale
Japanese brewer Baird puts out some really exceptional beers, and this is one of our favorites. It’s an American-style pale ale that’s citrusy without being overwhelming, with little hints of honey to counter the hops. The orange-amber color makes it extra festive, too.
$16 from Taphouse
Mikkeller …Zest Please!
It’s not just blonde beers who have all the fun. Brewed with orange zest by the ever-dependable Mikkeller, this is a dark, malty, chocolatey porter with a pleasant citrus kick. Think liquid jaffa cakes—great for dessert.
$13.50 from 99 Bottles
