Commercial Description:
A Beer Cloaked in Secrecy An ale whose mysterious and unusual palate will swirl across your tongue and ask more questions than it answers. A beer brewed clandestinely and given a name whose meaning is never revealed. Why #9? Why, indeed. A sort of dry, crisp, fruity, refreshing, not-quite pale ale. #9 is really impossible to describe because there’s never been anything else quite like it. Fermented with our 150 year old strain of top-fermenting English yeast.

The best thing about this brew is it’s color. Pretty hard pour into a tulip glass and not much of a head and what was there didn’t last. Thin mouthfeel, flavor and aroma of apricots, which i didn’t particularly like. Not enough hops for my taste

Light golden with thin head. Apricot nose that I confused with peach at first. Somewhat thin mouthfeel with little bitterness. Quite drinkable, but boring. Your mother-in-law might like this beer.

Draft. Apricot nose and flavor. Not a lot else going on. A little too watery.

the apricot flavor is perfect! not overwhelming, but more than subtle. great level of hops. a little bit thin and watery, but thats the only downfall i can think of.

Bottle and draft in college. Pours a straw body with a 2 finger white head. Notes of citrus apricot and a bready finish. Thin with a light alcohol finish. Good stuff with a fruity finish.

Pours a clear pale yellow. White head. Crisp taste. Some hints of citrus fruits. Refreshing.

12 oz bottle courtesy of eaglefan538. Drink by end of month Dec 08 notched on label. Pour orange golden with a two inch white head. A fair amount of carbonation and a bunch of floaties. Aroma of sourish orange and apricots. Some malty biscuit behind that. Taste is the apricots, strong and bitter. Sour is more astringent in the taste. Palate is light to medium bodied, oily and slick. Interesting and tasty, thanks Brian.
