Lawson's Finest Liquids Double Sunshine with Ruby Red Grapefruit

What the brewers say

“Made with ruby red grapefruit, adding an extra layer of mouth-watering, juicy, lush fruit character along with dank tropical aromas.”

What our panel thought

“Diesel-heavy nose, with a hint of pine sap behind it. Big, sweet malt backbone and marmalade hops in the background. Medium finish. As it warms, more fruity esters come out to play, and a citrus pith is left on the palate well into the finish.”

What our editors thought

“Subtle nose integrates the fruit without standing out. In the sip, a brief glimpse of fruit adds a pithy edge while maintaining its dry American approach.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Lawson's Finest Liquids Little Sip IPA

“Orange and grapefruit aromas take center stage, with white grape and pine supporting while the malt suggests a hint of honey. The flavor leans more toward grapefruit. Medium body. Moderate sweetness into moderate bitterness, which fades quickly.”

Lawson's Finest Liquids Double Sunshine IPA

“Bright but resinous, a beguiling combination. Woody/piney, just a hint of citrus. Sweet malt flavor, amplified by alcohol. Touch of burn. Big basil note retro (actually in the burp, but retro sounds better).”

Lawson’s Finest Liquids Ruby Red Grapefruit Double Sunshine

Semihazy with lingering grapefruit aromas that transcend into a well-executed balance of grapefruit and malt character. The grapefruit and the hops complement each other well while the malt bill supports and rounds out the picture. Semidry finish begs for another sip.
