Grapefruit-Infused Specialty Brew Released Across the Northeast

In not Pacific Northwest beer news of the day, many will still be interested to learn that Vermont’s Lawson’s Finest Liquids is doing the first major release of their most sought-after specialty beer Double Sunshine with Ruby Red Grapefruit. The already popular hazy double IPA is zested up with fresh ruby red grapefruit flavor and aroma will be available for a limited time at retailers across Lawson’s Finest Liquids nine-state distribution area (VT, CT, MA, ME, NH, NJ, NY, PA and RI) beginning this week. Which means cans are suddenly much more attainable.

More from a press release:

Double Sunshine with Ruby Red Grapefruit was first dreamed up during a trip to Florida where company owners, Sean and Karen Lawson, fell in love with the refreshing, citrus-infused flavors of several IPAs they sipped along the way. Since the trip, they’ve never looked back and brewed this iconic version of Double Sunshine every year. At 8% ABV, this craft beer is the perfect refreshing, fruit-forward, tropical taste to kick off spring.

“Double Sunshine with Ruby Red Grapefruit is the most highly coveted brew among our loyal fans. This special edition has an extra layer of mouth-watering, juicy, lush fruit character and dank tropical aromas,” said Sean Lawson, CEO and founding brewer of Lawson’s Finest Liquids. “Dried grapefruit zest is used in the kettle, grapefruit purée is added during fermentation and the beer is finished with grapefruit peel added to the tank. The final result is pure delight!”

The release of Double Sunshine with Ruby Red Grapefruit comes off the heels of Hopzilla and Super Session #3 with Comet distribution. These beers are part of Lawson’s Finest Liquids 2022 specialty limited release schedule across the Northeast.
