Lupulin Libations

The name says it all.

Lupulin glands are the tiny little yellow pockets of goodness in a hop cone that contain some essential ingredients for aroma and flavor in beer.

A libation is an alcoholic beverage, and of course beer fits into that category.

Lupulin Libations is dedicated to everything beer. I offer you a chance to have an experience with beer through my organized tasting sessions.

Fulton Lonely Blonde

More good news for Minnesota craft beer lovers! Fulton Beer, one of our newest Minnesota breweries, is releasing their next beer tomorrow, June 3rd. I received an email from the brewery today announcing the release party. The event will take place at King's Wine Bar in South Minneapolis and starts around 8pm.

The new beer is called "The Lonely Blonde" and here is the description from their email:

"An American style blonde ale, the Lonely Blonde is so named because it is one of the only examples of the style to be found locally. Though the Blonde is American born and raised, its distinct old world roots are clear, thanks to the three German hop varieties we add during the boil. The Lonely Blonde is an exceptionally balanced beer, light enough for the hottest summer day, but complex enough to keep you company any day of the year."

According to the Fulton website, this beer is 4.8% ABV and 29 IBUs. It sounds like a good brew for warm weather and I can't wait to try it. Go out to find this beer and support our local brewers!
