Rating: 4/5
Notes: As expected it’s juicy and hazy. Can’t go wrong there. Lots of stone fruit and pineapple flavors that I’m picking up. It has some slight bitterness at the tail but certainly no hop burn or anything like that. Great beer from these two.
Can art: Always fire from GN and their labels. “There’s a tear in my beer” is printed on the can near the date if you can’t read it. A sweet reference to the Hank Williams song.
Drinkage: 4 days after date in can.

Can art: Nice. It makes me think of summer.

Rating: 3.5/5
Notes: That’s a crazy amount of sediment in there. This beer is interesting with the salt in there. The mango flavor is good too but the sediment throws me off. Maybe just a bad or old can? Other pics I see of it look fine so maybe it’s just the one I got.
Can art: Haha that’s funny.
Drinkage: 43 days after date on can.

Rating: 3.25/5
Notes: Ok. I get trying to make hazys and such but I’m just not digging it too much at all. It’s certainly not terrible but just not anything special… Always looking forward to more from Hudson Valley.
Can art: One of the top breweries for can art and this is no different. Sweeeeet.
Drinkage: No date on can but not long after the release.
