Jul 2, 2008 Bottle thanks to Ibrew2or3. Pours a clear amber with a tiny white head. The aroma is mostly hops with a hint of apricot. The flavor is pretty sweet upfront, with a bitter tartness in the finish. Quite a lot of hops mix with a apricot flavor, interesting, but not my favorite mix. Almost like a sour, but kind of odd. Decent and worth trying for sure.

Jul 2, 2008 If you like apricots... It’s a good beer, little strong. Brown color, lite lacing and little head. Full bodied, not much bite.

Jun 27, 2008 Bottle, Orange-copper pour with a fluffy tan head that sticks around. Smells fruity, but you can barely pick out the apricot. A fruity taste of course, but not distinctly apricot. I think they should have just called this a "summer" IPA or something else because the focus just isn’t apricots. With that said, It’s tasty, light, refreshing, and really a good beer. Would drink again!

Jun 27, 2008 I thought the 60 min IPA was my least favorite from Dogfish until I tried this one. I didn’t like it one bit. This totally tastes like a fruity beer for girls and wimps. Being a hop lover, this is my least favorite "IPA". The only good thing I can say about this brew is it was smooth on my palate.

Jun 24, 2008 12 oz. bottle poured into flute- poured transparent darken orange, razor thin white head bubbled away in the time it took to lit a cigarette, very heavy carbonation. Aroma of citrus and hops. Hits the mouth with a thin body, not alot of sweetness throughout, as well as very little apricot being able to detect, hops come in the middle and carry to the finish. A bit disappointing.

Jun 23, 2008 Draft, Light fruit aroma, title is confusing because it is not very apricotty(great word) or hoppy. Nice clean summer beer.

Jun 21, 2008 Bottle. Pale amber, aroma of fruit, with hops and malt in the background, but a little disappointing compared to DFHs other IPAs. The flavor is solid, citrusy and refreshing, but the apricot adds a crispness and tartness, that while unique, seems to lessen the hoppiness. This is a great summer beer but not a great IPA.
