Perfumed apricot-peach tang bursts through polite floral accent, sweet melon nuance, and medicinal cough syrup continuance, but diminished fizz-hopped phenol finish goes sterile and blanched wheat bottom gets mired by diacetyl spell. Ripe cherry and stewed prune illusions revealed when warmed.

Prevalent apricot hue, aroma, and palate give hearty fruit ale a healthy leg up on most citrus-flavored brews. Conversely, more like a fruit with a hint of beer. Never overtly sweet, tart, or tangy, yet still a swell fructose-flavored choice. Brewery defunct: 2005.

Pleasurable hazy golden poolside brew inconspicuous after pounding more than one. Melding strong apricot tartness to unfiltered German wheat styling, this tangy dessert treat could be creamier and bolder. Juicy peach essence lingers on breath.

Mildly hazed amber ale brings tangy bruised apricot sweetness and unripe peach souring to increasingly tart lemon pucker. Hard-candied center picks up excessively vinous white grape dryness alongside Jolly Rancher-like green apple bittering. Depreciable earthen straw wheat base erased by fizzy hop patina.

Chalky fruit ale starts fine with sweet peach cobbler aroma, but washed out apricot acidity, bitter phenol hopping, and diacetyl maize-wheat backdrop ruin momentum to dismal laminated finish. Chintzy blueberry-nectar reminder barely suffices.
