It’s Opening Day today!
I’m not talking about the Detroit Tigers. Hopefully they are learning how to play baseball after the 2019 season.
I’m talking about deer hunting! Today through November 30 is the “regular firearm” season, so if you know a hunter, you know you won’t see them for a while.

A coveted and sometimes good luck charm to hunters is their beer of choice. I’m going to throw Big Lake Brewing‘s DEER BEER into the mix for a quality hunting beer.
I have not attended a deer camp or being out there in the blind or tree stands, so I cannot comment on the in-the-moment drinking experience, but I’ve had MOST of the traditional light beers that hunters swear by.
DEER BEER is a simple beer to enjoy, and it does not have any bells or whistles. It has a soft mouthfeel yet is crushable at 4.2%. The lingering taste of DEER BEER is delicious and full. When you pack DEER BEER, you’re going to get a light craft beer that you will be able to drink all weekend.
The rhyming beer name is cute, but to the point. Big Lake is telling the consumer that this light lager is for anything deer-related. Perhaps the can art and name will be your new lucky charm as it will also be camouflaged within the orange and brown leaves remaining on trees and on the ground. Big Lake puts their beers in 16 oz cans, so you’re going to get a full pint with every can you pack.
So, whether you are getting ready for the season or already out in the woods, it’s time for you to “go get that buck” as Ted Nugent sings in his ode to Fred Bear with Big Lake Brewing’s DEER BEER.
Cheers!
