I loved this Ale and I do wish someday the bottle their beer and ale. Great taste overall could drink all day and everyday YUM. Nice apricot taste but not over powering like some ales. Just what you want to drink on a nice summer day very refreshing with no bad after taste like a lot of shady ales..

Draft: Poured a clear light orangey color ale with a small foamy head with minimal retention. Aroma of light apricot and lightly sweet malt base is OK at best. Taste is dominated by light apricot ester with a lightly sweet non-descript malt bill. Body is average with medium carbonation. This one was a non-memorable fruit beer.

First had: on tap at Heartland Chophouse, NYC, NY
Meh. It's no Aprihop.
Pours a cloudy copper with a thin white head. Light toasted malts in the nose, with a hint of apricot. Taste has a fair balance of light, smooth malts, and crisp citrus hops, with clean apricots along for the ride. Flavorful, but too light to be truly enjoyable. Light mouthfeel, thin, moderately refreshing and drinkable if you're in the mood for such a beer.
