Lupulin Dortmunder Lager

Lupulin Dortmunder Lager. 5.5 % ABV. 25 IBU.
Lupulin Brewing, Big Lake, MN.

Here's a beer that won a medal at the Great American Beer Festival a couple of years back, surprising many as this brewery is best known for it's IPAs. So, now it's been canned and the sample I got looks nothing like the one you'll see in store shelves. That's how it goes sometimes.

Crystal clear, bright golden color, large and lasting pure white head, leaving some lace. Looking fantastic.

In the nose: Vibrant aromatics, bold floral notes, lightly hoppy. Hint of malt, grain.

In the mouth: More bright and buoyant flavors grace the palate. Sweetness and malt, with just enough hop bitterness for balance. Light-bodied, clean, and refreshing. This one's downright juicy.

Award winning, easy drinking German style Dortmunder lager. Best enjoyed anytime, preferably among friends.
