Looks great, yet smells and tastes even better. This beer has everything I love about Hudson Valley beers: tart sour grapes, lightly bitter grapefruit, white wine, lemon zest, sangria, apricot, orange peel, tangerine, green apple, papaya, lemonade, watermelon Jolly Ranchers and mild biscuit. Juicy and full of flavor, it was smooth and balanced, and also tart and zesty. These guys always deliver and this beer is excellent.

Really hazy pale yellow color with no head. Aroma has intense candied lime notes and citrusy hops. Taste follows with tart citrus candy and some fruity hops. Finish has a light fruit pit bitterness. Medium body and carbonation. Really balanced with nice sweet/sour flavor combo.

Wonderful beer, wonderful wine notes and a good berry tartness on a foamy, creamy mouthfeel.
