Craft beer is still growing nationwide at a tremendous rate and the Minneapolis area is one of the fastest growing in the country. Fulton Brewery has been a favorite among many locals in our territory. Minneapolis is no different, Fulton Brewery is seeing explosive growth in their hometown. Fulton Brewery’s passion and dedication to the craft beer scene is contagious. This passion translates into their growth regionally and locally.
Another, reason for Fulton’s growth is their focus on high quality beers. This became evident after winning their first medal at the Great American Beer Festival for Fulton Lonely Blonde in the fall of 2015. The accolades have continued to come in showcasing Fulton’s dedication; The Growler Magazine, The Taste Test: Blind-Tasting 53 Minnesota IPAs. Fulton took home the Best in Show as the number one ranked Minnesota IPA. Paste Magazine recently did a blind taste test of the top IPAs in the United States; 247 of the Best American IPAs, Blind-Tasted and Ranked. Fulton Brewery was #34 over-all and the top rated Minnesota IPA in their tasting.

Today, I wanted to talk about one of my favorite seasonal beers – Samuel Adams Octoberfest… This beer is talked about more often than any other seasonal beer we have in house; retailers are asking for it mid-summer! Samuel Adams Octoberfest is one of the largest seasonal beer offerings in the world and the largest Oktoberfest beer in the world. Samuel Adams Octoberfest has a 27% share of the fall seasonal segment, significantly more than any other fall seasonal brand.
After one sip of Samuel Adams Octoberfest you’ll know why it’s so popular every fall –

It’s hard to think about but cool fall weather is just around the corner. I look forward to Bison tailgating and NFL Sunday’s with a Märzen style beer more than the weather. As the leaves turn amber to copper color so does the beer in my glass. This color of beer is reminiscent of traditional styles of Okotberfest Beer or Märzen style. We have several brands of Oktoberfest beers to choose from, traditional Paulaner Wiesn to the number one selling Oktoberfest in the world Samuel Adams. I’ve attached a list above and below that contains the multitude of Oktoberfest & Pumpkin beers that we have available this fall.
Below is a description of this style of beer courtesy of Beeradvocate.com
Märzen / Oktoberfest
Description:
Before refrigeration, it was nearly impossible to brew beer in the summer due to the hot weather and bacterial infections. Brewing ended with the coming of spring, and began again in the fall. Most were brewed in March (Märzen). These brews were kept in cold storage over the spring and summer months, or brewed at a higher gravity, so they’d keep. Märzenbier is full-bodied, rich, toasty, typically dark copper in color with a medium to high alcohol content.
The common Munich Oktoberfest beer served at Wies’n (the location at which Munich celebrates its Oktoberfest) contains roughly 5.0-6.0% alcohol by volume, is dark/copper in color, has a mild hop profile and is typically labeled as a Bavarian Märzenbier in style.
Average alcohol by volume (abv) range: 4.0-7.0%

NEW!!!! LAGUNITAS 12th of Never Ale
Tropically Hoppy. Light, yet Full-Bodied. Bright and Citrusy. Word.
The magical, mystical 12th of Never is a blend of Old and New School hops that play bright citrus, rich coconut, and papaya-esque flavors, all on a solid stage of English puffed wheat. Tropically hoppy. Light, yet full-bodied. Bright and citrusy. The 12th of Never Ale is everything we’ve learned about making hop-forward beer expressed in a moderate voice. Pale, cold, slightly alcoholic and bitter. It’s all we know.
These 12oz mini-kegs (AKA cans) are an exciting new option for us, and we are stoopid stoked at the opportunity for y’all to take us to all those new, nelophobic locations…

And then at the very moment that the lands beyond the River Styx froze over, as the last pig took flight, as the last winged monkey departed the darkly fragrant netherlands, when wishes become horses and all of the beggars rode, when a moon rose newly blued on the morning of the 12th of never, and the second to last craft brewery in America pressed the green button on their canning line. We wanted be the Last Small Brewer in the U.S. to can their beer and maybe by now we are…

Lagunitas 12th of Never is – surprise, surprise – a hop forward beer. Described as a “bitter-esque, pale-isa ale”. As we sit here drinking it for the first time, it truly is damn hop forward, walking a fine line between pale ale and IPA, kind of beer. A truly tasty beer for this nearly 100 degree start to the summer. Fans of Lagunitas Brewing’s bold hop flavor will be quite happy with this release year-round. Founder, Beer Street Journal.
