Commercial Description:
Brewed by the original Wheat Beer Pioneers, Pyramid Apricot Weizen Ale is left unfiltered for extra flavor and aroma. The gold medalist of fruit beers, Pyramid Apricot Weizen is an adventurous wheat ale that offers the pleasing aroma and flavor of fresh apricots, and smooth and refreshing character for which our wheat beers are known.

A smooth brew that is not too feminine but actually lighter on the apricot than I had expected.

sampled from bottle: pours a cloudy orange colour with a medium white top. Aroma is pleasent, light, inviting and fresh- plenty of apricot and peach aroma. Taste is fruity, apricot flavored (duh) and delightfuly carbonated.

Pours a hazy bright darker orange color with super quick dissapating head that completely vanishes. Aroma is some sweet sugared apricots. Flavor is bitter apricot and a bit of wheat sweetness. Bad aftertaste.

Somehow, this is one of the very few Pyramid brews left that I still enjoy. The fairly forward push of real apricot flavors sucker my little tastebuds into bliss. Not the greatest of the palate smashers, but on a hot day in the summer (when it’s available), it really can hit the spot.

Had a very pretty strong apricot flavor, which was surprising. Other than that, it was weak on the finish and dry/watery. Tasted like their crystal weizen with apricot in it. The fruit seemed like an addition, and didn’t mingle with the rest of the beer.

Very full and fruity aroma. Nice color, hazy. medium head-white. Apricot was not overwhelming. I don’t usually drink fruit beers, or any weizens for that matter, but this one left a favorable impression on me. I will definitely be sampling other beers from this brewery.
