When staring down the barrel of the dour and feeling the temptation to drown in bitter fatalism, instead take some form of action — any action — toward the good, the nourishing, the positive.

Peaks and Pints has six craft beers in our cooler to start the conversation. …

PELICAN PEACHED ON DECK: Thanks to Pelican Brewing’s 2018 Lone Pelican Small Batch Series latest release, “Peached On Deck” now means a lager brewed with 50 pounds of peaches per barrel. Expect delicate flavors of toasty malt and sweet fruit with a surprising champagne-like finish. 6%

PROPOLIS SAGE BLACKBERRY: Farmhouse dubbel ale brewed with sage, thyme, and Hyssop. Hyssop? Hyssop leaves have a slightly bitter minty flavor. Propolis takes all this and ages it in Malbec barrel with wild blackberries for an elegant, vinous, lightly herbal and slightly tart dubbel. 7.5%

BREAKSIDE THIRST TRAP: Mele Kalikimaka! Multiple flavor hop Mosaic is paired with a generous helping of grapefruit-aroma-laden Simcoe and Chinook hops to create a beer that has big notes of ruby red grapefruit, citrus zest and pine needles, paired with aromas reminiscent of guava, Sauvignon Blanc grapes, pineapple and mango. 6.4%

URBAN FAMILY GUAVA DAWN: Wake you taste buds up with this pink guava sour ale fermented with a mixed culture of Brett, Sacc and Lacto for tropical and creamy berry milkshake notes atop of a moderately sour base. 6.2%

MAUI BREWING FANCY FOOTWORK LAGER: Austin Beerworks donned a lei and help brew this clean, crisp and fruity lager with aromas of lemon citrus, floral and pine. 5.2%

WINGMAN PARACHUTE PILSNER: Float on honey and fresh bread before landing on an herbal and lemony, creamy target that bites back. 5%
