COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This deliciously crisp beer is perfect for a hot summer day. The delicate taste of apricots gives a splash of sweetness to the crisp clean wheat ale and results in a refreshingly pure flavour sensation.

Pours a dull orange with an impressive head and a sweet apricot jam aroma. Taste is quite balanced - apricot is not too sweet, but neither is it particularly natural tasting. Creamy body, good carb. Tasty - sessionable and balanced. I think I’ll give this one another try before the summer’s out.

riversideAK (4566) - Shoreline, Washington, USA - MAY 7, 2012
Nose of toasted wheat malts a little sweetness and light apricot skin. Pours hazy orange lasting fizzy head with light lace. Flavors of toasted wheat bread light fruity sweetness and moderate apricot skin flavors. A little bittetness and lightly nutty even. Wrll carbonated solid body.

Muddy blond color. Delicate apricot aroma. Dry mouthfeel, some wheat flavor, and some light fruity touch. The final is a bit too bitter for this kind if beer. Drinkable.

Lagerboy (416) - British Columbia, CANADA - JAN 11, 2012
Unclear orange yellow, white receding head. Apricot wheat malt aroma. Sweet apricot malt taste, crisp and refreshing. Light bodied, average carbs. Sweet clean finish. Nice summer sipper, or deep winter diversion. LF (Lagerboy Friendly)

Aroma and flavour were a pleasant apricot. Smooth mouthful. Not as good as other Cannery’s, but still nice. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

rosenbergh (3486) - Helsinki, FINLAND - JUL 31, 2010
650 ml bottle. Barriere, BC, Canada.
Slightly hazy golden colour with small white head. Sweet wheat and fruits in aroma. Wheat, yeast, fruits, sweetness and some hops in flavour. I couldn’t recognize the apricots.

CapFlu (3798) - Victoria, British Columbia, CANADA - JUL 17, 2010
(650ml bottle) Purchased at the brewery on June 10, 2010. They oddly package this beer upside-down because it "stays fresher"? Very lemony tonic aroma. Slight cloudy golden orange body with a lasting medium white head. Flavour is cloying, milky lemon citrus. I don’t get any real apricot - and its a fairly watery American wheat beer - but all and all palatable. I’m much more partial towards the Wild Fire IPA.

paco (527) - Regina, Saskatchewan, CANADA - JUL 8, 2010
Bottle. Lots of faint fruit aromas here. Some apricot, orange, banana, and some spices make up the aroma. Taste is of the same fruits. Very light flavors, way over carbonated. Terrible example of a fruit beer.

Sask89 (278) - Regina, Saskatchewan, CANADA - MAY 13, 2010
Pours a clear orange colour with a medium frothy white head. Aroma is definitely fruity; apricot, peach and orange peel, also noticeable is a little herb/spice smell. Taste is heavily sweet with various fruity undertones present. Body is light, texture is thin and the carbonation is fairly fizzy. Overall a good fruit beer, not a fan of the style though.

Powertrip (841) - Calgary, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 12, 2010
Pours...well...the colour of Apricots. Very sweet fruit nose...apricot, banana, glacier water, thyme, malt. Sweet (but not sugary) entrance into the mouth. Apricots abundant. Wheat is quite dominant through mid palate. Dried prairie herbs finish things off. This one had a great sweetness that wasn’t fruit dominant or sugar dominant...and this made for a pleasent surprise. A touch high on carbonation.

650ml brown bottle. Hazy yellow/gold. Creamy, tight beaded white head. Apricot fruit nose, sweetish but pleasant. Flavour is crisp dry wheat malt with apricot, hint of hops at the end. Dry, clean finish. Light body, tight active carbonation but not too fizzy. Fruit-wheat beers usually don’t do much for me, but this one is rather refreshing, even drunk out of season.
