Lupulin Land starting lineup for Friday, October 16.

Here’s the starting draft list for the eighth Lupulin Land Harvest Hopcoming, which kicks off on Friday, October 16.

We're dubbing it the All-American Lupulin Land, because only American craft brews will be tapped in 2009. As always, we'll tap as many as possible, and replace the fallen with fresh kegs as long as possible. When they're gone, they're gone.

Notes of importance: Several of the opening night kegs are 1/6 barrela, meaning that there may be rapid turnover from Friday to Saturday. Also, on Friday the 16th, NABC's VII will be available at both our locations via cask-conditioned firkin. The regular CO2 release is slated for October 23. Also, for those in search of the annual appearance of Randall the Enamel Animal, note that Randall suffered an injury and is being rehabilitated as I wrote. We'll see him, but we don't know when. Stay tuned.
