| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 19, 2008 draft at dogfish head bar and grill. a sweet smellling IPA. Pours dark yellow almost orange. slightly off-white medium head. tastes are citrus primarily, the apricot is there but faint - probably best that way. Good with the wurst and kraut.

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Apr 19, 2008 Bottle: a very high carbonated light brown pour with a very thin white head. Scent is full of hops. Flavor is nothing like taste. Can taste under ripened fruit (apricots). beezz86 (68), Jasper, Indiana, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Apr 18, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poured a clear orange color with almost no head. I don’t really smell the apricot in the beer but more of toasty malt and light floral hops. The beer went down thin and oily with lively carbonation and a bitter finish. As with the aroma, I really don’t taste the apricot. I don’t know if it got a bad bottle, but overall I wasn’t very impressed with the beer. I thought it tasted like another IPA with nothing really special about it. Strykzone (1468), Wood River, Illinois, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Apr 18, 2008 Fruit and ipa is an interesting mix. Not a lot of the ipa comes through in flavor or aroma. There is a bit of pine and hop bitter after taste. It is a generally sweet and light drinking beer. Can’t agree with the 86% rating, tho. albertane (376), Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 18, 2008 Draught at Barcade, Brooklyn, New York. I’m not a big fruit beer fan, but this one is pretty good, although not a patch on Dogfish Head’s 60 Minute IPA. scrizzz (1263), kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 18, 2008 light bronze color, soapy sparse head fell quickly. dried apricot aroma. my kinda fruit beer! rich and dried apricot initially and on the finish, fresh crunchy hops come through, but barely. nothing sticky or overly sweet about the fruit.

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Apr 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours amber with a two finger head that disappears quickly and leaves little lacing. Aroma is light some malt with a little hops and minimal fruit sent but an odd overlying metallic smell. Taste was bland not much of the hops coming through a bit of the apricot and a little malt. Overall I’m not impressed at all with this beer... not one that I will recommend or try again. djd07 (733), Houston, Texas, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 17, 2008 On tap at Flying Saucer. Has an amber color with a medium off white head. The aroma is citrus and floral hops. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a very sweet hop with a fruity finish. My least favorite Dogfish brew.
