Good sized bright white head that recedes slowly. Good carbonation. Nice aroma of peaches, apricots and light grainy malts. Color is a dark copper. Light flavor and palate with just the right amount of fruit. Some tea and spices. Gritty feeling in the mouth and finishes with a bit of lingering tartness. All in all a very good summertime brew.

does not count  Sep 2, 2008 Pours golden yellow/orange. very little head. Great aroma of apricot. The apriot/fruity aroma is not overpowering in the taste of the beer. A very easy drinking beer which I will try again

Sep 1, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours clear gold with tight white head. The aroma is sweet apricot, cough syrup, Big League Chew, and a little bit of yeastiness. The flavor is an artificial-seeming apricot, surrounded by a lot of other odd fruity esters. It’s pretty sweet, but has a slight tingly bitterness to it. The finish is a little bit earthier and yeastier, bringing a welcome hint of balance to the sweet fruitiness. I can’t get into this one.

Aug 31, 2008 Tasted 8/3/08. 12oz bottle. Filtered with a golden hue. Spotty white head. Bright nose! Lotta citrus and apricot aromas with a touch bubblegum. Bright, yet simple aromas. Medium bodied with a sweet honey malty smoothness. Bright fruity palate. Citrus and apricots with a floral fruit character. Slight hop presence. Good fruit forward beer. Full and fresh and slightly sticky. I would definitely look for this again.

Aug 26, 2008 Bottle. Lightly sweet and fruity aroma, some peach, berry and apple along with a gently toasty maltiness and flowery perfume. Clear light amber color with a largely subsiding head. Flavor is similarly fruity and sweet, with honeyish malts and faint hop flavor up front, becoming mildly tart fruitier towards the finish, which sees an influx of juicy apricot and pear. Low in carbonation with a thin, light mouthfeel and body. Not much of the wheat to be found here, but manages to avoid overwhelming with fruity sweetness for the most part.

Aug 25, 2008 6-pack from Bayville Package Store, Fenwick Island, DE...pours "apple juice" gold in color, small white head...smell is apricot, grass, musty...flavor is much of the same with a hint of added citrus...fruit is apparent but not overpowering which is a bonus.
