It's indeed white ale and coding season
Thursday, April 10, 2008 
In what some consider blustery & cold New England (Boston), the weather is ripening and it's now time for coding on the deck into the wee hours of the evening: deck lights burning, a warm breeze, the pristine glow of a laptop screen, your code editor of choice, the confidence of WIFI, some piped-in music, and a few bottles of white ale.
Now, around here people like to think Sam Adams (Boston Beer Company) makes good beer. You can find Sam Adams White Ale, but I honestly don't know why you would subject yourself to that kind of humiliation. It's completely unmemorable. And watery. It's not horrible, but it is a distinct waste of time.
Hoegaarden. Get some. Seriously.
You will not be sorry. You'll pay a little more, but you'll actually enjoy it. The aroma is right, the balance is quite good, the color is spot on, and you'll be able to down more than three before getting bored, like you will with Sam Adams.
