Commercial Description:
An easy-drinking wheat beer is light in color and body...perfect for the warmer weather. In crafting this fine ale, we add many pounds of real apricot fruit to create a "secondary fermentation." This creates a gentle wheat beer with just a hint of apricot flavor in the finish. A very drinkable, mildly fruity ale.

Aroma of fruit and taste is sweet with lots of sweet apricot flavor. Dry apricot too help this balance out a bit.

This is a pretty decent fruit beer. Nice balance on the apricot. You notice it’s there but it’s not overpowering

Bottle. Nose-apricot, fruit gum, lychee. Body-medium ring of bubbles, piss yellow. Taste-spiky, not too bad, fruit, watered down, gum water, cotton candy. Pretty much tastes as one would imagine an apricot wheat to taste.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Smell is apricot, fruity, wheat, malts. little bit artifical. The look is darker golden in color, clear, with a little white head. The taste is water, fruity, apricot, honey, and sweet.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours a light, hazy yellow with fizzy white head. Aroma of apricot, wheat, somewhat floral. Flavor has a light apricot/wheat taste. Mouthfeel is light and watery, high carbonation. Overall, not bad, easy drinking, would make a good summer beer.
