Lucid Dyno Pale Ale

I'm not usually one to post beers from the same brewery in consecutive weeks, but the Dyno Pale Ale from Minnesota's Lucid Brewing is just too delicious an option to pass up.  The brew is a nice gold, with a medium body and carbonation, with plentiful aromas of bread, citrus, and florals.  The taste is heavy on the floral side, but with some good citrus and spicy hops to keep the thing pretty well balanced.  I had one of these at the end of a hot day, and it was just superb.  And once again, dig on that bottle label.

Lucid Silo Saison

The first thing that struck me about the beer from Lucid Brewing out of Minnesota was how unbelievably cool the bottle labels are.  They're really arty and different.  That being said, the beer is pretty damn good too.  The Silo is a Saison, a light, Belgian style beer that's perfect for summer drinking.  The brew is a hazy orange with a good, sudsy head and smells of spice and malt.  Those malts and spices are prevalent in the beer's flavor, though there are some light hints of banana and orange in the mix as well.  And you gotta love all that carbonation.  Summertime beer!  Hooray!
