This beer from Belbourn Brothers pours a nice, golden brown/amber with a transparent quality. It’s very carbonated but produces no head, although it has a decent film. It smells like apples and has an overly fruity scent to it. Though, you can’t really detect the apricot. It basically tasted like apple cider. It has a thin consistency with very little body. But, it has a brilliant taste - I could easily chug this with how good it tastes. As noted before, the texture is quite thin. There’s nothing else to note aside from the fact is has a nice fizz as you drink it.

absolutely no head and very closely resembles iced tea. It is extremely carbonated at first but fades over time. The smell is pretty much exactly what I expected: apple cider, apricots, peaches. The taste is a little worse than what I expected but also not bad and resembles greatly a decent alcoholic cider with a little more kick and tartness.

Taste and aroma are apple juice and apricots (shocking). A bit tart but not significantly so, with low acidity. Kind of a wimpy, chugable lambic. Not bad though.

Bottle. Pours an opaque copper body with a thin white head. Overly sweet with artificial apricot and peach y notes. Some light sour cider and vinegar notes. Eh.

I felt the need to eat an Atomic Warhead to balance out how horribly sour and gross this was.

Pours with not much head and a golden, lemon color body. Smells of muscat and vinegar. Flavor is overripe, apricot, muscat, vinegar, and sour. Finish is sweet and sour.

(bottle - 12 oz) Rich amber color with a fizzy white head. Aroma is very sweet with lots of apricots and yeast. Flavor is very sweet as well. Took us by surprise with how sweet it was. Tons of sugar and apricot flavor with a lingering, syrupy aftertaste.
