Sierra Nevada was a good micro brew. Same with Newcastle pale. There was a boutique store near me that sold all sorts of good beers from around the world. You could get a mini keg for less than $20. One summer, they had all the fruity light summer beers - plum, apricot, apple, etc. They went quite well with the apple and turkey sausages.
