Ithaca Apricot Wheat

Brewed by Ithaca Beer Company
Style: Fruit Beer
Ithaca, New York USA

Draught at Ithaca Beer Company in NY. Pours gold, with a medium frothy white head. Fruity, peach and apricot nose. Wheat malt in flavor. Soft, slightly yeasty finish.

Poured from bottle 8/2008 (sampler 12 pack). Clear lager appearance. Thin white head persists. Smells just like dried apricot. Crisp, clean feel, apricot in aftertaste. Easy drinking, finished well. Surprisingly good.

Not too bad. If you are looking for a fruity beer you may want to try others first, however I definitely wouldnt complain about having it again. Light clear amber color with slight apricot fragrance, not over powering at all. One complaint is there was a little too much carbonation for my likes.

Gold colored with off-white head. Nose is pale malt, citrus, apricot, peach. Tastes pale malty with a fresh apricot flavor and some citrus and hops toward the back end. A bit light on palate heft, but refreshing on a hot day.

Good beer for when you really want something different. You really have to have a taste for sweet beers and especially apricot flavor - if not, don’t even bother with this beer. It has a beautiful golden color, fluffy white head that dissipated quickly, powerful aroma of apricot with matching flavor, the aftertaste can be pretty lasting.

Bottle: pours a yellow color with just a little cloudiness, aroma of apricots, kinda smells like gummy candy too, taste is pretty bland and watery, much too weak for me.

i’m sorry i can not stand this beer, i hate apricots, my girlfriend likes it, but i think it is horrible.

Bottle: Poured golden amber color with not too much head. The aroma was definitely apricot. The flavor was sweet with apricot, cinnamon, and some citrus. Overall, not a bad drinker but wouldn’t recommend if something else is present.
