| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Sep 2, 2009 Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is a bit of wheat and a lot of apricot - at least it seems like a natural flavor instead of the artificially-flavored beers I’ve seen. Taste is a wheat characteristic with a little sweetness, then it moves full-bore into apricot. It has a crisp and rather clean finish that I liked. It’s not spectacular by any means, but it’s an easy-drinking summer beer. There’s a place for those. Jblauvs (549), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

Flavor is much of the same, Fruitiness and wheat, Pleasant but a little bland. Refreshing crisp finish DeeBee21 (45), NH, New Hampshire, USA

Taste is very similar. The yeast and fruity apricot at front that holds out to a little fruity spice at the finish. Very easily drinkable and refreshing great in the warm weather. A reliable pleasure of mine. JaBier (1212), Capital City, Ohio, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 22, 2009 7/22/2009: Ithaca Apricot Wheat has a fresh, ripe apricot aroma. The beer is a golden yellow color, mostly cloudy, and capped with a small off-white head. The flavor is lightly sweet and fruity with a yeasty middle accented by apricot and then it finished with a delicately spiced wheatiness. This beer is medium-light but still smooth and has enough body to be satisfying. Overall it is refreshing, balanced, and has enough apricot to be pleasing without distracting from the characteristics of the wheat ale.
12 fl. oz. bottle (Best Before: October 2009) from Tmoney99. Thanks Tom! Rating #174 for this beer.
