A: Moderate fruit esters, coupled with a light apricot aroma, light malt, and faintly vinous.

A: Deep golden color, totally clear, with a thick white head that quickly recedes into a film across the glass.

T: Moderate fruit esters, citrus and pear, moderate apricot flavor that becomes more prominent as the beer warms, light sweetness, and faintly vinous, with a semi-dry finish.

M: Medium bodied with moderately light carbonation.

O: Tasty; the additions of apricots and oak aging complement the golden ale base beer well.
