What about Weisse?
As long as it's made following the official German recipe, it's "beer" in my
book. (For a good explanation of the Bavarian Purity Law, and how real beer
is made, see

Personally, I used to love a good Hefe Weiss beer, with a slice of lemon in
it -- and it's still great on a hot summer's day. However, over the past
decade or so my tastes have grown darker. "Amber" or "Red" is about as
light as I'll normally drink now.
