Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a one finger tan head that results in spotty lacing. The nose is light citrus hops, apricots and malt. The taste is light citrus, caramel and a strange sourish apricot finish. Medium bodied. Disappointing – was hoping for a hoppy IPA with some apricot but it missed the mark.

12oz Bottle. $3.20 Julio’s Liquors. My quest to taste all things Dogfish brought me to this one. It is quite good though it seems a bit thin for a Dogfish. Apricot taste did come through as did the hops. I guess I am spoiled by the other Dogfish offerings that I was expecting more from this one.

Beautiful bright amber color with a decent long lasting head. Dry hopped with a slight apricot overtones in aroma and taste. Tastes like an IPA with a slight apricot twinge to it.

Nos yeux observent une bière de couleur cuivrée et un col de mousse modeste et persistant. Au nez on découvre un parfum de houblon d’abricot. En bouche le corps est moyen avec une effervescence moyenne. On goûte des saveurs marquées d’abricot en coalition avec une légère amertume. Le 7% est bien camouflé.

Clear orangish amber pour with soap sudsy white thin head. Nose is vanilla, hops, and apricots. Flavor is floral hops with a slight fruitiness that becomes more pronounced, and a nice fruity bitterness on the finish. Medium body with medium carbonation.

This was a good fruit beer. aroma was light and apricot/hoppy. Taste followd through with apricot to start and hopps to finish. i partulary enjoyed this beer because of the hopps as most fruit beers dont have them as much and they fall flat on this finish. this beer delivers from start to finish

12oz bottle. Pours a clear amber with a thin white head. Aroma is lightly sweet fruit with just a hint of grain and some dough. Flavor is initially acidic then light malt and hops and then more acid only with a fruit undertone. Light to medium body, somewhat thin texture. Finishes bitter and fruity.
