When it was done, I knew the two hour ride in roughly 80 degree heat needed to be countered with something unhealthy. Enter: Founders Double Trouble. I still haven't quite decided how I feel about this beer, but since it really hit the spot during a Madden tournament last night, I thought it would be the best bet today.
Wrong.
Sure, it was tasty. And it smelled soooooooooooo good. But after a ride like that, it was just too heavy to be refreshing. Honestly, a Genny Cream Ale (!!!!!!) would probably have been a better choice in the immediate post-ride minutes. What a fool I was! So now I need help: what beer should I have in the fridge before I embark on my next ride?

Really post bike ride Genny Creamy isn't a bad choice. IPAs, high ABV, and full-flavored beers never sit well after a hard work out. My ideal beer for after a long bike ride is a kolsch or hefeweiss. Nice and light and and satisfying and and and relaxing!Pilsner is good too. Also Honey Brown.
The bike ride sounds great by the way!!! Can't wait to ride here.
