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.

Pretty good magic hat. And enjoyable fruit beer with strong taste. Enjoyable and easy to access at more stores.

This beer scores a 8 on my random 12 BCS. At its best this beer is better than the 2.5 it scored, it is also lower at its worst. I have experinced some consistancy issues from six pack to six pack. When its good I like the taste and aroma it is different but a welcome change from time to time.

Magic Hat #9 is an apricot-flavored beer that is average and nothing special

Clear amber color, I would agree with the brewer that it is a "not quite pale ale", the flavor is much more potent on tap than bottle, good after taste, kind of an acrid aroma-not a bad thing though!

Apricot flavored ale. Vary sweet tatse, with same nose. Decent color. Not a fan of flavored beers, but this one is ok. Not the best Magic Hat offering.

This was a little interesting in many ways but also seemed lacking in every department.

Super sweet beer, main taste of apricot and honey. thin beer with a real clean feel. Just a little too sweet for my taste though.
