Fulton Beer
Ordinary Guys Brewing Extraordinary Beer
6/2/2010
Greetings!
We get a lot of requests about when we're releasing our next beer and what
it will be. Well, ask and you shall receive--this time, anyway. Tomorrow
(Thursday, June 3rd), we're releasing our second full-time beer, the Lonely
Blonde. 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. So,
if you see a Lonely Blonde at the bar, be sure to stop and introduce
yourself--it just might be the beginning of a beatiful relationship.
June Events
Here's what we're up to this month. Be sure to keep an eye on our website
and Facebook page, as we add new events all the time.
Thursday, June 3rd: Release party for The Lonely Blonde at King's Wine Bar.
We'll be pouring samples starting at around 8:00. King's is on the corner of
46th & Grand in South Minneapolis.
Tuesday, June 8th: Pizza Luce Downtown is featuring our beers this month,
which means $3 pints for you! Luce DT is a great place to grab a slice and a
pint before a Twins game, which is exactly what we'll be doing from 5:00 to
7:00 on the 8th.
Tuesday, June 15th: As you (hopefully) know, patio season is in full swing
by now. The Longfellow Grill has one of the best, and what better way to
celebrate it than with a Lonely Blonde? Join us for one (or more) from 6:00
to 9:00. And why not bike there? Longfellow is just off the Greenway.
Sunday, June 20th: What better way to celebrate Father's Day than by taking
dad to the St. Paul Summer Beer Fest? Join us and 70+ other breweries for
one of the best beer festivals in the Twin Cities. Visit
www.saintpaulsummerbeerfest.com

purchase tickets.
Tuesday, June 29th: We'll be heading to Cherokee Tavern for a beer dinner.
Beer dinners are all great, but they can be dollar--and calorie--intensive
affairs. Cherokee is putting together a lighter offering with 3 courses: a
Lonely Blonde & fruit/cheese pairing, Sweet Child of Vine matched with a
Fulton Vinaigrette salad, and a peach cobbler with a peach-infused Sweet
Child of Vine. It's only $30 per person, tax & tip included, but be sure to
call ahead early--there are only 25 slots available.
Other Going-ons in the Fulton world...
In addition to brewing beer, drinking beer, and talking about beer, we have
a number of other projects going on--all beer related, of course. One we're
particularly pleased to be a part of is the Randy Shaver Golf Classic. Each
year, the Randy Shaver Cancer Research and Community Fund puts on a golf
tournament to raise money for cancer research. In 2009, they awarded over
$300,000 in grants. This year, Fulton is the beer sponsor of the golf
tournament. It's a great event for an extremely important cause. To find out
more about how you can help, visit
randyshavergolf.com.
We're also tinkering with a few other things around the garage. There will
be some sweet new Fulton apparel available in the next month or so, so be
sure to check for it at our website from time to time.
Shhh! We're also designing our packaging for bottles--a fun project, to be
sure, but don't get too excited just yet, as bottles won't be available
until at least this fall. The people have spoken, and they've asked for
bottles. We've heard the call, but we appreciate everyone's patience--it's
a
slow process, and believe us when we say nobody is more excited than us to
have Fulton available in bottles.
What else might you see in the future? Well, depends on how far into the
future you're looking. We're working hard right now on finding a brewery
space in Minneapolis, revamping our website, brewing more beer...the list
goes on and on. In fact, the list is so long that we've had to push back our
goal of having Fulton available on the moon until at least 2050. But rest
assured--you'll always be able to grab one on tap in the Twin Cities between
now and then.
