Beer Cocktails For Your Super Bowl Party
You and your crew may be a grab bag of die-hard Broncos fans, Cam Newton fashion disciples and pigskin-averse fans of Super Bowl commercials, but there is one thing that will bring all opposing sides together: beer. And lots of it.
Instead of guzzling them down right away, slip your brews into these refreshing cocktails.
① Shandy Noir
This effervescent sipper is for all the frazzled hosts out there. All this Italianesque shandy needs is a light beer, citrusy Chinotto and a lemon wheel.
② Beer Cassis
Forget fussing with individual drink orders (and picky guests) and stir up one big pitcher of this Byrrh- and cassis-laced cocktail.
③ Rye Revival
Top off this basil-infused cocktail with Guinness for a malty, warming libation—perfect for frigid living rooms or winter tailgating.
④ Lagerita
Lighten up the reliable brunch-fueling booze by finishing it with a generous pour, Modelo to be specific. No salt rim necessary.

⑤ Raspberry Snakebite
It's raining lip-smacking lambic with this minty take on the usual cider-spiked snakebite.
⑥ Roman Michelada
Balance all the fatty, delicious foods with a little bitter by mixing this take on the michelada, fortified with Campari and Peroni.
⑦ Cranberry "Sauce"
Finally, another reason to make more cranberry sauce. This smoky number mashes up the old-fashioned with the boilermaker for a classier beer and a shot.
