Commercial Description:
Cascade Apricot Ale is based on our Temptor Triple Ale that has undergone over 8 months of lactic fermentation and oak barrel aging. Ripe NW Apricots are fermented with this beer for 3 additional months. This hand packaged and bottle conditioned ale will only get better with age ... good luck waiting.

Serve at 45-50 Degrees F.

Bottled. A hazy dark golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, elderflowers, and fruit. The flavor has nice brettanomyces notes combined with lighter notes of elderflowers and wood.

Pale, dull gold colour with a slight haze. Yoghurty, clean apricot aroma evokes morning dew and true love. Tart and clean. The hints of apricot are clean and gorgeous. Finishes soft, slightly sweet, moderately tart. Balanced and refreshing. Easily the best of the Cascade fruit beers, and one that lovers of Lindemans Peche should hunt down - it does the same thing only without the suck.
