So this weekend I stopped at a couple of breweries for some sampling. And one had a Riesling Ale. Here's their description:
It was brewed at Three Brothers Brewery in Geneva NY.
Thought it might be of interest to those who make both wine and beer. I'm a really bad at describing a beer so I'll leave it at what the description says, seemed awful unique to me. Although maybe its been done before.
For any New Yorkers out there the other places I sampled were, Rooster Fish Brewing (also known as The Crooked Rooster Brewpub) in Watkins Glen, and Wagner Valley Brewing Company, Lodi NY.
Riesling Ale
The first beer of it's kind! We actually blended pure NY riesling juice with an American wheat beer and came up with something truly unique. The nose starts out a bit grapey and spicy, while the flavor is a subtle blend of white wine and malt. We kept the color and body light; really light and ramped up the carbonation level to bring out the fruity aromas. This is the perfect beer for those hot, Western NY summer days we all know and adore.
Brewed with Pale, Wheat, and CaraPils Malts. Hopped withCentennial and Mt. Hood.
Alc. 4.5% by volume.
