Yeah Buoy transitions from summer beer to substantial fall styles

Yeah Buoy, a collaboration between Logboat Brewing Co. and 4 Hands Brewing Co., is a great way to transition from sessionable summer brews to more substantial styles. This India pale lager – a hop-forward style with 6.3 percent ABV that boasts an assertive bitterness and complementary graininess from loads of Pilsner malt – is clean, crisp and bursting with juicy tropical fruit, light stone fruit and a resinous dank character that makes your palate water for more. 

Six-pack: $10. Available at Saint Louis Hop Shop
