Bottle. Golden in color with a fizzy white head. Wheat aroma with........you guessed it, apricot. The flavor is pretty much the same. It has an almost sour on the tongue upfront but ends more on the sweet side. Light and dry. (Rating from June ’07)

Bright hazy orange with an orange-kissed white head. Big mouth-watering fresh apricot aroma (if you like apricots). Good apricot fruit with a solid soft malt base, smooth mouthfeel, and a slightly salty finish (sounds weird, but it really made this beer work for me). Apricot beers can be hit and miss for me, and I thought this one was delicious

12 oz bottle via Roth’s. Pours a dirty hazy reddish gold with an average white head. Nose is such a strong peach/apricot that i get nothing else. Taste is also a strong apricot, with some malt, yeast, hops underneath..waaaay underneath. This is all apricot and wheat. Light body and high carbonation. Would be much better with less carbonation.

A decent fruit beer- strong malt profile with an ever present background of apriicot and some floral notes. The apricot comes across as natural and not too sweet. Good grilling on the patio beer.
