The first thing that strikes you about this beer is that it is uniquely fruity upfront with apricots and perhaps a cherry hint. there’s only a mild bitterness, and the finish is a very nice but slightly musky yeastiness. Overall this could pass as a very good pale ale - i.e. the fruit is not overbearing and it tastes like a real beer. FROTHINGSLOSH (2047), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA

It poured a medium gold color with a small white head. There was a light sweet fruity aroma. The flavor was dry apricot with light malt notes underneath and a dry almost seed like flavor on the finish. Much dryer than I would have expected given the style and aroma. A pleasant beer overall and one I would get again. rhapsouldize (174), Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, USA

I've always liked this beer a lot. Medium copper color with a medium white head that leaves some thin lace. Very drinkable. jon112981 (327), Chevy Chase, Maryland, USA

Tastes of fruit and bread or yeast rolls with a light apricot flavor, less than in the aroma and certainly not overwhelming like some apricot beers. Palate is smooth and velvety with bright orchard fruit and just enough crisp hops for balance, melting into a soft mellow finish. Nicer than I expected.

A nice waffting smell of apricots eminates throught the clean golden mixture with a nice white head. The taste is interesting, a swirling mix of sweetness, apricot,pear and a slight presence of hops. Reminded me of a good woman. I liked it overall. Tasty
