Oct 9, 2008 Pours bright gold into a shaker. Bright white head recedes to skim surface. Apricot aromas. Apricot upfront, middle and back. Dry sour apricot finish.

Oct 8, 2008 Out of the bottle, it pours a whitish-gold color with a thinner head. It has a metallic-apricot flavor tempered with generous hops. It has a medium-bitter flavor. almost like an IPA/Apricot Ale hybrid. It was interesting and drinkable - probably my favorite in the Magic Hat line. For those that like fruity beers, this is a good one. For those that don’t, well, keep moving.

Oct 6, 2008 Poured a hazy straw, maybe very light copper color. Soapy looking white head with some lasting power, no lacing. Smells somewhat dirty and fruity. Some hint of apricot, a little of that dirty smell and a bit tart. Very middle of the road for me, not really my style and I would not buy again.

Oct 5, 2008 Tap in Columbus, OH. Golden beer, decent white head. Aroma has a hint of the apricots that are described to be in this beer. Flavor very floral with a hint of the apricot. Little malt flavor accompanies the beer. Very smooth going down. To me, this is an example of a well-balanced fruit beer. Too often I taste all fruit or no fruit. This has a pleasant touch of the apricot.

Oct 3, 2008 Bottle in NYC.
Very rich and spicy aroma. Brewed with apricots, and there is a soft, sweet and seducive apricot flavour. Sort of back porch in the shade type of beer. I liked it!

Oct 2, 2008 Hazy golden yellow, moderate white head. Aroma of apricots and biscuits. The apricot flavour is at the forefront, but there is balance here with some quality pale malts. The finish is dry and clean. Another nice rendition of the apricot beer.
