The Renegade Tasting was served up by friendly staff in an eclectic, cozy atmosphere and offered a tasty array of options. The Heathen dry red is a new favorite for me and we also enjoyed Pink Crime which was a fruitfully mixed rose' amoung the variety of options. Renegade also serves up bottle and tap beers that kept the guys happy while we sampled the delicious wine list. Conveniently located on Main Street in Stroudsburg, this may become a new summer tradition.
