Commercial Description:
Our flavorful apricot ale boldly combines the taste and aroma of fresh apricot with the smooth finish of wheat malt. Its refreshingly unfiltered character and fruit flavor make it an ale worth savoring.

An unclear orange beer with a small disappearing white head. The aroma is dominated by apricot, with some wheat notes in the background. The flavor is slightly sweet and again dominated by apricot, but the body is thin.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) A hazy, golden beer with a small, white head. Distinct aroma of apricot. Medium-bodied, lightly sulphurous with distinct apricot flavours. But overwhelmingly a rather dry and fresh fruit beer with a subdued bitterness. High drinkability. 100506

Sampled draught at Oliver Twist, Stockholm.
Cloudy orange. Sweet apricot jam aroma. The malt profile is clean, hard and simplistic with no softness. The apricot flavour is balanced, not overly sweet, but somewhat acidic. The poor malt structure however kills this beer, and creates a metallic, empty finish.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy golden orange with a small yellowish head. Aroma is distinct apricot citric and mild wheaty. Flavour is smooth apricot, subdued sweetness and smooth wheaty flavour and texture. Smooth fruity and mild citric flavoured finish. Nice one.

Distinct apricot aroma and flavour. Not bad, but resembles alcopop too much.

Hazy peach colour. Big apricot aroma, kind of syrupy but not much else. Big sweet apricot taste, hint of wheaty tartness. Sweet & tart finish, still with lots of apricot. That’s really about it. Pleasant, refreshing, drinkable but not terribly exciting unless you like apricot.

Original rating: Back in the day, before the likes of New Glarus and Quelque Chose, this was considered a definitive North American fruit ale. It is unfiltered, has a peachy colour, and strong sweet apricot flavours, which fall away towards the finish. Ar 7 Ap 4 Fl 7 P 4 Ov 14 = 3.6

Draught at Crown & Anchor, Las Vegas
Hazy golden color. Aroma of dried apricots. No beer taste at all, weak, thin, just a synthetic apricot touch.
