very odd. of course, this reeks of fruit. but also seems to have some kind of malt backbone. the weird part is that this seems to be the same malt (in aroma and flavor) as circus boy, but circus boy is a wheat? well, i guess maybe this is too. at any rate, unlike many other fruit beers out there which overwhelm you with fruit so much that you have little left to remind yourself its a beer, this at least has some kind of malt in there. hops are at a minimum but the fruit flavor is sort of subdued and more properly described, strange. very dull appearance, perfectly bland gold/yellow like a rice beer or urine, at least the aroma/flavor has something to offer. this is indeed intreguing.

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.

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

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.

Dec 28, 2008 Draft. Apricot nose and flavor. Not a lot else going on. A little too watery.

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.
