Press Release:
(Minnetonka, MN) – Lucid Brewing, Minnetonka’s only micro-brewery, announced its fall and winter package lineup ready to hit shelves immediately. The fall seasonal ORA, a smoked amber ale, will be available on draft and in 6-packs into December. The winter seasonal DUĆE, an oak aged Imperial red ale, will be available on draft and in 4-packs at the end of November and will continue into February.
ORA is an amber ale featuring a lightly smoked malt character that is subtle and adds complexity to the brew. The beer is malt forward and sweet with a medium body and mouthfeel. The packaging for ORA has a digital camouflage of fall leaf colors and amber haired woman overlooking the Lucid logo. The artwork was created by Minnesota native Drew Bently and was designed to highlight the fall season. ORA is 6.5% ABV.
DUĆE is an oak aged Imperial red ale and features a unique balance between malt sweetness, hop bitterness, and citrus hop flavors. Oak aging this beer adds a complex mouthfeel and bourbon and vanilla aromas and flavors. For the artwork on the 4-pack, Drew chose contrasting colors and sharp lines to mimic the bold and powerful flavors of the beer. DUĆE is 8% ABV
