Sea Dog Apricot Wheat Beer

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

This beer for me was too light, and definitely too sweet. I like wheat beers, but this is my first taste of an apricot wheat. I will probably try a different brewery for an apricot wheat, but not this one again.

From a bottle labled kennebunkport apricot wheat. I thought this was pretty decent. I like the apricot wheats. It was kind of watery and boring, but the taste was pretty good. Wheaty, light apricot flavor. Not much else going on.

Poured a dark yellow with a foamy head. Smell of candy and citrus. Beer drinks a little light with a stranges sweetness to it.

bottle poured a light golden in color with a thin layer of white head that quickly disapeared. carbination is fairly full pooling at the surface. aroma has real nice apricot, sweetness, peach, and a candy nose. mouth feel is lighter with a good dose of carbination and is refreshing. taste has a fairly authentic apricot peach thing not too overly sweetened. the wheat side could use a little more punch and it finishes through on the dry side a little thin. on the track of a magic hat #9 but lacking in body.

Bottle from Trader Joe’s Cincy under the name of Kennebunkport. Poured clear golden color with small frothy head that diminished quickly. Medium aroma and flavor balanced of apricot and citrus with a short finish. Easy to drink average brew.

Pours a clear light amber color. Fruity aroma, definite apricot presence. Light watery apricot flavor, very refreshing. This has a good flavor for a lighter beer, you could drink it all day.

Bottle from Trader Joes, with the Kennebunkport label. Clear slightly orange golde. Aroma of apricot candy. Artificial apricot candy flavour eclipses any malt that may be hiding here.

Had this under the Trader Joe’s Kennebunkport Apricot Wheat. Pours a clear gold, no haze. two finger frothy white head. The aroma is sweet, apricot, some citrusy lemongrass. The flavor is grainy, soft grains, a tad bit wheaty, and then sweet apricot. Says what it is. Goes down easy Not a drain pour but not something worth spending money on. I literally copy and pasted the blueberry wheat rating here and changed blueberry to apricot.
