12 oz bottle via Roth’s. Pours a dirty hazy reddish gold with an average white head. Nose is such a strong peach/apricot that i get nothing else. Taste is also a strong apricot, with some malt, yeast, hops underneath..waaaay underneath. This is all apricot and wheat. Light body and high carbonation. Would be much better with less carbonation.

A decent fruit beer- strong malt profile with an ever present background of apriicot and some floral notes. The apricot comes across as natural and not too sweet. Good grilling on the patio beer.

12 oz. bottle pours a cloudy perfect apricot color with small, loose peach colored head that quickly dissipates leaving no lacing. Aroma of a dried apricot with a hint of sweet malt. Front palate is malty with a strong apricot-wheat middle and a slightly hoppy finish. Easily this is one of my favorite fruit beers and a favorite summer beer as well. Every one I drink I think of summertime evenings, hanging out on the porch in the heat, watching the sunset. Just perfect. Easily paired with something light and crisp; Grilled chicken breast with a citrus glaze on a bed of spinach with fresh basil and tomatoes.
