Yet another weird one. Basically an apricot pie Kettle Sour. Basically an apricot pie version of a sour. But, I like apricot so I can’t really complain
Pours a murky orange gold with 2 fingers of off white head that fades to a thin cap and leaves minimal lacing
This really does smell like a pie, quite sweet and and tart. I’m picking up on aromas of graham cracker, apricot, vanilla bean, orange juice, and light peach
It’s a bit more tart in taste which I really appreciate. On the front end of the sip I’m tasting lemon zest, jammy apricot, bready malt, vanilla, orange juice, and light apple skin. The swallow brings notes of jammy apricot, vanilla bean, tart lemon juice, apple skin, bready malt, and light caramel
A medium body pairs with gentle carbonation, resulting in a smooth yet crisp body. Finishes mostly dry given the thickness
This one is weird, but I actually really liked it. Funky, but quite good

Drekker Apricot Shortbread Cookie Slang Du Jour Sour à la Mode, 7.5% ABV. Pours thick and brilliant opaque orange, with a few large filmy bubbles that left film instead of lacing. Nose is apricot, vanilla, granola, and coconut. Taste follows, moderately tart, equally sweet, slightly bitter. Nose is better than the taste. Decent mouthfeel, whatever the hell that means. Overall very good. Not my favorite variant.
