Sea Dog Apricot Wheat Beer

Brewed by Sea Dog Brewing (Shipyard Brewing Co.)
Style: Fruit Beer
Topsham, Maine USA

Not much head, but its actually apricot in color....pure and clean in the amber waves of beer...distinct apricot on the sniff, like fresh squeezed (extract) apricot....clean palate, makes Frank salivate...easy to drink, but for a wheat beer it’s quite un-cloudy....a bit of malt backbone, but blended to carry the apricot to just the right balance, also a tad heavy for a wheat beer, but apricots tend to be thick in flavor and thickness, at least in the nectar form, so it’s all good...anyway...yum!...and Frank’s arrival date:...4-24-07...welcome back to Jerzee with a brew to you..:)

Bottle. Golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma is apricot, fruit. Flavour is apricot, hop, wheat. ok beer.

Very fizzy, the flavors of the beer and the apricot are very subtle. I’d pass on this one.

Bottle. (thx Furseth) Clear, golden pour with an off-white head. Apricot-fruity nose with nothing else to find. The flavor is quite wheaty, but with lots of apricot as well. Sweet, fruity finish. Medium bodied beer which is quite refreshing, but I couldn’t be drinking much of it. (070608)

Pours a clear golden, almost apple juice color with almost an effervescence. The head quickly vanishes and leaves an overwhelming apricot smell. The taste is pure apricot with very little hint of being a beer. Not bad for what it is but nothing to write more about.

Very apricoty to say the least. Not a brewing masterpiece, but a very drinkable brew, and not that expensive. I got mine for two dollars a bottle, which is a good deal for a drinkable summer brew.

Aroma is apricot, Medium sized shortlasting white head on an apricotcolored body. Very crispy mouthfeeling that also is thick. Mostly taste apricot, some small bitternes.

12 oz bottle. Enjoyed over a game of poker. The aroma is great - of course strong fruity apricot - no surprise. Poured a nice body - thick hazy orange similar to a Belgian wit.
