And while it’s tough to beat the appeal of a classic pilsner or hoppy, piney IPA, one of the best choices for the summer months is a refreshing, balanced wheat beer. In the most basic sense, a wheat beer is a top-fermented beer that’s made with a higher percentage of wheat as opposed to the usual barley.

Four brothers, two sisters, 19 nieces and nephews: “It was my dad’s idea of cheap labor, I guess,” Benziger says, laughing. “Or nepotism run amok.” For the Benzigers, working in the drinks industry seems like destiny.
