There’s no better way to celebrate the coming of a season of heat and sunshine than by cracking open a cool, refreshing summer beverage. From your favourite patio beer with an added slice of citrusy greatness to a beer crafted from reborn bread to a farm-fresh apple cider — we rounded up our favourite new summer beverages for you to enjoy this weekend and all summer long.
