Ottos Apricot Wheat

Brewed by Ottos Pub & Brewery
Style: Fruit Beer
State College, Pennsylvania USA

Very mellow but noticeable apricot flavor. Actually tasted more like beer than cough syrup like other fruit beers.

For a fruit beer, this was great. Sweet and refreshing apricot flavor was very noticeable, but did not overtake the fact that this is BEER. Some hops and wheat flavors present, nicely balanced.

Draught at the brewery. Slightly hazy yellow and orange color. Lightly sour orange and grapefruit rind scents. Flavor is similar, with a light tartness present which is particularily nice. Has some light apricot rind and wheat flavors throughout, though stronger and more pronounced in the finish. Lightly tart, lightly biting on the tongue. OK overall, a bit pale and lacking depth, but drinkable, and thankfully not overwhelmed with cheap fruit flavors like so many other fruit beers.

Lite apricot overtone. Balanced bitter hops thru out the ale. Decent wheat ale but not one of my favorites from otto’s (They have too many to choose from!)

Not a big fruit beer fan, but this isn’t bad on their patio on a summer afternoon. The apricot flavor is there, but not as dominating as you might expect, it’s more there for support. Otherwise it’s nicely balanced, fairly light in general, but refreshing.

Growler. Light-medium amber color. Nearly no aroma or head to speak of. Palate is smooth (light on hops), and a distinct apricot flavor rolls over the tongue but is not overbearing. Refreshing, fruity, but not over the top. A very tasty and refreshing fruit beer that certainly does its style justice...I’d recommend it!

I usually dont like these type of fruit beers, but this is an exception. Pours very light gold/orange with a slight haze and good head retention. Aroma and flavor are loaded with real apricot which gives the impression of biting into a fresh ripe apricot on every sip. Good wheat smoothness all the way through. Very well made.

Dark golden color with a small off white head and nice lacing. Authentic apricot aroma. Smooth wheathy and apricot taste. A delightful fruit beer. This pairs well with the Stilton with Dried Apricot cheese.
