| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 6, 2009 Tallahassee, Fl. - Market Square Liquors, 22 oz bomber. One of those beers I always thought I had rated - had it plenty of times on tap - only bought it because of the price ($2.49 - glad I did!). Dark golden pour, sticky, thick white head.Fruity aroma -hard to describe - some peaches, yeast, a hint of spice. Flavor has some buttery notes, a hint of spice, faint citrus notes. Mouthfeel has a pleasant spritziness to it. Remionds me somewhat of a Saison.

Aroma of yeast, slight corn-like smell. Fruits like peach, pineapple, honeydew melon perhaps? Apricot, tangerine.

Palate... moderate to high carbonation... moderately clean finish. j12601 (1317), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 19, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear orange with a thin white head. Big apricot aromas, smell a bit like a liquor with how overpowering it is, though there’s barely a hint of wheat in the background. Grainy and really sweet. Finishes with a light bitterness. Lacks any subtlety. rlaw (54), USA

Flavor is of apricot, mild malt, some citrusy hops, and a bit of yeastiness. Sweet, but not overly so. Very refreshing. A nice beer. RKanis (42), Cincinnati, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 12, 2009 Thanks to Strykzone for this one. It poured a hazy gold color with a small persistent head. Nose of fruit showing apricot and apple. Medium mouthfeel. The flavor is mild and overall this is easy drinking and decent fruit beer. JCastner (108), New York, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Dec 12, 2009 One of the worst samples I’ve tried this year. Pours a brilliant copper with a nice white head. Aroma is of bread and some light dried fruit. Taste is... well, how do I put this, imagine unsweetened fruit seltzer water. No body, no sweetness, no bitterness, just very, very dry. taphandle (27), Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 9, 2009 Orange with a white head which lasted for a few minutes. The smell of apricots and peaches was very apparent and tasting it gave the same flavors. I don’t mind an occasional fruit beer, so I enjoyed this one, as it was a surprise when I opened it.
