As we transition into warmer weather, I've discovered another day drinking favorite of mine! Tropical Fun Pants from Lupulin Brewing out of Big Lake, MN. This brewery has produced several winter favorites of mine, so it's not surprising that they hit the mark in spring, too. Fun Pants is what we'd classify as a fruited blonde ale, but the folks at Lupulin took the fruit to the extreme in this case: the base of this beer is over 50% juice! Mango, Pink Guava, Nectarine and Passion Fruit dominate this easy sipper. There is some sweetness to this beer, but the tart flavors from the nectarine help to reign it in, creating a beautiful, mouthwatering acidity. Fun Pants will please any serious beer drinker, but I challenge all beer haters to give this one a shot - it's not your ordinary foamer! - Brian Krause, Local Beer Buyer
