Scotch hasn’t traditionally been a go-to spirit for summer cocktails, but that’s changing as more bartenders look to incorporate a little warmth and/or smokiness into seasonal recipes. Case in point: Sam Ross’ modern classic, The Penicillin , which is one of the best examples of how Scotch can anchor a bright and refreshing drink. Here are a few of our other favorite summer Scotch cocktails.

For pretty much the last two decades, the IPA has been the No. 1 craft beer style in America, if not the world. The most talked about, the most written about, the most complained about, the most purchased, the most riffed on. In that time, we’ve seen the beer industry go from malty English IPAs to dank West Coast options — teeth-chatteringly bitter double and then triple and even quadruple IPAs — to softer, fruitier, and hazier New England-style options.

Organizers justified the decision by citing a 1991 French mandate known as Evin’s Law, which bans alcohol from the general public in stadiums.
