Pyramid Audacious Apricot Ale

Brewed by Pyramid Breweries
Style: Fruit Beer
Portland, Oregon USA

Golden in color with a crisp white head. Nose abundant apricots with hints of wheat intermingling. The palate is smooth and light with a bit of hop followed by a hint of apricot on the finish. Very refreshing and easy drinking!

Left a little sticky, morning breath-esque taste in the mouth post drink, but during each sip the flavor of apricots was good (definitely could taste the apricot!), thogh I wish it was more refreshing and less sweet.

Pours a nice orangish red with a small head apricot was suprisingly good, at first i did’t know what to think of this one at first.

sampled from bottle: pours a cloudy orange colour with a medium white top. Aroma is pleasent, light, inviting and fresh- plenty of apricot and peach aroma. Taste is fruity, apricot flavored (duh) and delightfuly carbonated.

Pours a hazy bright darker orange color with super quick dissapating head that completely vanishes. Aroma is some sweet sugared apricots. Flavor is bitter apricot and a bit of wheat sweetness. Bad aftertaste.

Somehow, this is one of the very few Pyramid brews left that I still enjoy. The fairly forward push of real apricot flavors sucker my little tastebuds into bliss. Not the greatest of the palate smashers, but on a hot day in the summer (when it’s available), it really can hit the spot.

Had a very pretty strong apricot flavor, which was surprising. Other than that, it was weak on the finish and dry/watery. Tasted like their crystal weizen with apricot in it. The fruit seemed like an addition, and didn’t mingle with the rest of the beer.

Very full and fruity aroma. Nice color, hazy. medium head-white. Apricot was not overwhelming. I don’t usually drink fruit beers, or any weizens for that matter, but this one left a favorable impression on me. I will definitely be sampling other beers from this brewery.
