Draft at SBR. Tasted 7/11/09. Pours a thin head over a clear pale yellow (SRM 5) body....nose is dominated by apricot with little else....taste early of bready malt then dominant apricot arrives, minimal bitterness, slightly astringent on the finish....mouth feel is light.

On tap at CB Potts Broomfield poured a clear golden yellow with a small lasting white head. Aromas of apricot and cookie. Palate was light bodied and crtisp. Flavors of apricot, cookie and light biscuit with a crisp fruity finish.

Draft at CB Potts, Chyenne; Nose of hops and apricots; plae gold with a samll white head; flavor of apricot, hops and malt.

Pale yellow; nice lace; slightly hazy. Creamy-smooth, sticky-soft texture. Slightly cloying. Malts were light and kind of wheaty. Sweet, chewy apricot, mostly upfront. Flowery aromas. Decent amount of bitterness, albeit a little odd tasting. Overall, not bad, but a little too synthetic tasting.
