750 ml ( ) poured into pint glasses.
Quickly disappearing head.
I got neither the aroma or taste of apricots, which was actually fine with me. A friend brought it and even though I don't like peach/apricot, I gave it a try.
I found it to be an average sour--very drinkable and enjoyable enough.
Light body, a sweetness to it, and the typical sour. Went down easily but not a sour I would chase down.

A: Poured into a Duvel tulip to a slightly cloudy light orange topped by a dense two finger white head that fades to a collar around the edge of the glass with some lacing
S: Smells of light sourness and funk with some apricots.
T: Taste is surprisingly sour up front with a huge burst of apricots along with some funk. Swallow is more juicy apricots with lingering sourness and funk.
M: This beer is fairly light in body with effervescent carbonation and a drying finish from the acidity.
O: Overall this one is very good. It has some nice flavors and complexity but it doesn't have more going on than you can keep track of. Not quite up to par with Filmishmish but it's a more than suitable substitute.
