12 oz bottle served without a glass. Sniffing the bottle revealed a sweet syrupy apricot smell along with a touch of c-hops. Fresh apricot taste that blends with the sweet caramely backbone and light hoppyness, a bit too sweet. It was good but I tired of drinking it 2/3 of the way through the bottle.

Pours an amber with a nice foamy head. Smells a bit like a vomity lager though. Sweet, sweet, sweet apricot in flavor that is not at all appeasing. Just sweet all around here. Nice full body though, but the sweetness was just too much for me.

Good tasting beer. Very drinkable- fruit beer - what can I say. Not as fruity as I thought it would be (and that is a plus) -It hid the higher ABV very well - reminds me of a Gewurztraminer wine.

Draught @ WABF 2008. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Has a fruity apricot aroma with some hoppy hints. Fruity and slightly tart crisp apricot flavor with some hoppy hints. Has a fruity finish with hints of apricots.

Filtered way too much for starters. Aroma is weak and thin. Taste is weak on the apri as well as the hop. Weak. Don’t waste your money

Pours a nice oranage color with an off white head. Aroma is of fresh apricots and citrusy hops. Flavor is much the same, DFH really made a winner with this one, the apricots and hops meld so well together, this is so refreshing on a nice spring afternoon.

Sampled at the Tampa Lowry Park Zoo WaZoo Festival. Very tasty and nice hoppy balance with apricot flavor.

Not a horrible IPA. Didn’t really detect much fruitiness. Not much of head. To me, it had a strange after taste to it. Maybe a tang, citrus flavor more then a bitter flavor. Worth trying a couple, but I probably wouldn’t buy again.
