Jul 18, 2005 Draft. Light golden beer. Apricot aroma. Big apricot flavor with some balanced malt. This is a pretty good fruit beer - fruity, not over powering, very drinkable.

Apr 20, 2008 Hazy yellow gold with no head. A little apricot in the aroma. Light soft flavors of apricot and wheat malt. It was rather carbonated.

Nov 27, 2008 Draft @ Valley Brew. Pours a bright yellow color; white head with fine-bubbled lacing. Syrupy apricot, butterscotch, and sticky sweetness in the aroma; not good. Medium mouthfeel: light carbonation and flabby presence; like a mouthful of apricot syrup; overripe, sweet, and not much else, aside from the butterscotch. Can’t say that I enjoyed this. Lengthy finish of sticky-sweet apricots and sugary fruit syrup.

Jan 7, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. A slightly darker gold color. Aroma of apricots, and something akin to urinals. Flavor of apricot, somewhat artificial, wheat and bread.

Nov 17, 2006 Not sure what happened to this beer, as it was just about as diacytl as I’ve ever had. Usually Steve is dead-on with his beer, so not sure what happened (I did have this from a growler that was filled earlier in the day). Aroma was very nice with a sublte apricot floating about. Appearance is light orange in color, minimal head. Mouthfeel was light and refreshing but unfortunately that’s where the enjoyment for this beer ended. The apricot flavor took a backseat to the buttery bomb that would follow. I will rerate this beer at another time, during another visit. Hopefully it will be better with a different batch.

Jan 5, 2009 (10/29/08) Draught sample at the brewpub in Stockton. Hazy orange color. Aroma of fresh apricots. Sweetish flavor with apricots and some sugar. Light-bodied. Smells good but that’s it.

Mar 25, 2009 Draught at the brewpub. Opaque yellow with a small head. Creamy apricot lotion aroma. Light malt flavors, low bitterness, healthy apricot and pretty dry overall. Light bodied. Not much going on besides the apricot lotion impression.

Jul 31, 2008 sampler @ brewery - clear, light gold with orange glow and no head; apricots very noticeable in flavors and aromas; texture is grainy and thin; wheat, yeast and lemons also mixed in; dry finish; they get the nose and flavor just right without being overall sweet; very nice
