Dragonmead Castlebrite Apricot Ale

First off let me say that I am disapointed by Dragonmeads brews at the present. I have gotten the impression that with the prices of their ingredients going sky high, they have cut back on the quantity of their ingredients in their brews. The end result is much weaker than usual brews. The aromas and flavors all appeared weak IMHO. With that said, on to the rating. This draft brew from the brewery poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a dark yellow-orange colored body and a fair lacing. The mild aroma was bready and apricot. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The thin flavor contained notes of breads and apricot. A decent one but not one that I would consider buying again.

on tap at the brewery..pours golden with no head..light apricot in the nose..apricot wheat flavor...nothing too complex; a summer quaff indeed..

Very light in color, light head. tastes very fruity but is not overwhelming. quite refreshing. a lip smacker of sweetness. Id drink it again, but not often

On tap: Kind of a grassy and sour apricot aroma. Orangish-gold with an insignificant white head. Weak initial apricot flavor mixed in with some wheat flavors. Finishes rather sour. Some funny taste lingers in the background that I can’t pinpoint.

Tap: Murky golden orange with no head. Aroma all apricot. Apricot flavor from beginning to end. Decent lacing. Would drink again.
