Garden State Hudson Pale Ale originally appeared on Hop Talk.
My Dad tried to surprise me with a beer I’ve never had before, but alas, Al and I had the NJ State Stout at Oktoberfest. However, he had more ammo… I’ve never had the NJ State Hudson Pale Ale.
I am a Jersey boy too and I think it is great that craft brewers continue to make good beer into good business in the garden state. Right now their distribution is limited to New Jersey, but the list is quite extensive. Their stout was great and this pale ale was also well done; I highly recommend giving them a try.
The Hudson Pale Ale poured with a voluminous head at cellar temperature. The color was clear amber / brass. The aroma was light and fruity. It was clean and easy going down, improving along the way. As the lacing lowered itself down the glass, the bright and well-rounded hop character never took over the beer making it a story with a good beginning and a great ending.
