Recently named “3rd Best Craft Beer in the Hudson Valley” by TAP NY, Dirty is an American style-wheat beer with a twist. Brewing this beer with American ale yeast keeps it light and refreshing. An enormous Cascade and Centennial dry hop gives this beer a strong grapefruit aroma and a pleasant citrusy flavor.

Draught @ the source. Clear golden with small foamy whitish head, faint malt aroma, high carbonation, bitter malty taste, thin body, medium bitter finish. Nothing spectacular.

Bottle shared. Thanks TimE. A little bit of musty grapefruit and peach, some bandaid notes. Lightly infected, but still enjoyable. --- Beer merged from original tick of Adirondack Dirty on 03 Jun 2016 at 20:05 - Score: 6. Original review text: Lightly infected but drinkable.

This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy golden orange to yellow color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about thirty seconds. Light speckled lacing roams around the glass.
The smell starts off with some peach inducing a light herbal/grassiness leading into a semi-sweet citrus. A light rind-like quality runs into combine.
The taste moderately blends the citrus with the peach and the herbal/grassiness. A light amount of citrus blends into the aftertaste and leads to a wet citrus finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. Carbonation runs light and still the bitterness is mainly subdued.
Overall, not a bad beer, but I don’t see it as a wheat ale. Probably could have again for me.

12 ounce bottle. Hazy golden, thin fizzy off-white head. Decent retention. Aroma of tropical, citrus hops, pale malt. The taste is tropical fruits, pretty tart, lemon, piney notes, pale malt. Medium bodied, lingering tartness and bitterness.

At a tasting, thanks zvsn, big and gushing bubbly head, citrusy aroma with some pine and a hint of olive, strong sour vinegar flavour with hints of yogurt and fruit, very light bitterness, Unbalanced and really strange.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Ariel’s place. Thanks zvsn. Slightly hazy golden with a big white head. Decent citric hops aroma, slightly stale. Sourish and fruity flavor with a bit of graininess and faint hoppiness. Rather light-bodied. Seems like something went wrong with this one, sourness is completely out of place. Still drinkable though.

A hazed blonde ale with a thin white head. In aroma, light fruity malt with light grassy hops, soso. In mouth, a crisp malt with light mineral notes, grassy hop, boring. On tap at Empire Brewfest 2014.
