Lupulin Brewing, Big Lake MN

In preparation for beer #11000 this weekend, we went to nearby Big Lake and visited Lupulin Brewing for two more beers.

#10998 ドキドキ "Doki Doki" is a fantastic light beer, billed as a "Japanese rice lager". It's got mild grainy malt flavor, mild floral hop flavor, very low bitterness, and a fantastic balance and even complexity. Great stuff.

#10999 Brave Noise was less impressive. Weirdly floral, weirdly citrusy. And look, if you're going to serve murky beers, at least call them out on the menu. This one was labelled "Pale Ale - American", which is why I ordered it.

See you tonight at Aegir Brewing for beer #11000!
