Fulton Solar Vortex Session ale with Blood Orange

Fulton Solar Vortex Session ale with Blood Orange.
3.8 % ABV. 10 IBU.
Fulton Beer, Minneapolis, MN.

Lightly hazed, bright golden color, slim white head.

In the nose: Bold, citrus-y aromatics. Ooozing blood orange and grapefruit. Beautiful.

In the mouth: Fresh and vibrant. Orange is all over this. Underneath all that, light and lean and thirst quenching. Mild malt, meager hops. Evaporates without effort, leaves the palate with no fuss.

This was certainly not made with me in mind, but I'm sure plenty will be pounded on many a patio.

It's raining. It's snowing. It's too hot. It's too cold. In the land of partly-cloudy we sure do enjoy our talk about the weather. And in that spirit we've crafted our newest beer-a Blood Orange Session Ale we're calling "Solar Vortex". Inspired by a yet-to-happen summer weather phenomenon (call it wishful thinking) it's dry, low in alcohol, and perfect for the summer ahead. Pick up your 4packs of tallboys beginning next week around the Metro.
