zab judah has all of the natural talent in the world. one would think he would be a great fighter, yet he has no heart, no determination and no chin...all of his ingredients just dont mend with a great boxer

Bottle thanks to Ibrew2or3. Pours a clear amber with a tiny white head. The aroma is mostly hops with a hint of apricot. The flavor is pretty sweet upfront, with a bitter tartness in the finish. Quite a lot of hops mix with a apricot flavor, interesting, but not my favorite mix. Almost like a sour, but kind of odd. Decent and worth trying for sure.

If you like apricots... It’s a good beer, little strong. Brown color, lite lacing and little head. Full bodied, not much bite.

draft. orange yellow with a thin white head. apricot and citrus aroma. taste is a nice blend of hops and soft apricot flavors. light to moderate body. tart crisp edge. the apricot blends really well in the palate. no hint of the higher abv. tasty.

Bottle, Orange-copper pour with a fluffy tan head that sticks around. Smells fruity, but you can barely pick out the apricot. A fruity taste of course, but not distinctly apricot. I think they should have just called this a "summer" IPA or something else because the focus just isn’t apricots. With that said, It’s tasty, light, refreshing, and really a good beer. Would drink again!
