Available only in New York State for a limited time the 2016 version of Hopstate NY is an Amber Rye Ale - a completely new evolution in the annually evolving series. The hopping schedule is almost entirely late-edition hopping. Then, two rounds of dry-hopping follow during fermentation. These late hop additions give the beer bright aromas of citrus and melon. The flavor follows the aroma with pleasant notes of citrus alongside sweet honey and caramel from the ample malt backbone. Moderate bitterness blends nicely with the malty sweetness and the finish resolves to satisfying spiciness.
