meathookjones (245), Sterling, Virginia, USA May 7, 2005 Its always interesting to see what will be under your cap with Magic Hats brews. This poured out a clear orange with a decent sized off white head on top. The head dies quickly leaving a slight lacing around the glass. Aroma is sweet with malt with a touch of fruit and an odd smell that I couldn’t recognize. Taste is similar with a malt sweetness standing out the most over slight fruit notes and an odd taste matching the smell. Overall this is a very mild brew that is a bit odd but I can’t place my finger on what it is. Mouthfeel is a little watery. Ok drinkability, but not something I could have many of or something I would have very often.
sar50 (9), , Rhode Island, USA does not count Jan 7, 2009 On-tap at the Mews Tavern. No tthe first time I have had this beer and I continue to like it.
Color is pale orange/yellow and carbonation/bubbles are very inviting.
Smells of fresh apricots, though not overpoering
Taste is malty, fruity and sweet. Apricots are very present, but the backbone of the beer is not overmatched. Mild fruitiness and medium carbonation enables this beer to be highly sessionable.
awharr02 (5), USA does not count Dec 30, 2008 The best thing about this brew is it’s color. Pretty hard pour into a tulip glass and not much of a head and what was there didn’t last. Thin mouthfeel, flavor and aroma of apricots, which i didn’t particularly like. Not enough hops for my taste baobubba (433), Corvallis, Oregon, USA Dec 29, 2008 Light golden with thin head. Apricot nose that I confused with peach at first. Somewhat thin mouthfeel with little bitterness. Quite drinkable, but boring. Your mother-in-law might like this beer. danielcurtis81 (348), San Diego, California, USA Dec 28, 2008 Draft. Apricot nose and flavor. Not a lot else going on. A little too watery. mattwatkins (4), , USA does not count Dec 26, 2008 the apricot flavor is perfect! not overwhelming, but more than subtle. great level of hops. a little bit thin and watery, but thats the only downfall i can think of.
