Collaboration with Cigar City Brewing
When you can’t see the smoke through the haze, reach for a beer the cuts right through. Two neighboring breweries in the South, Cigar City and Terrapin Beer Co., introduce “Vapricot” Apricot Ginger Imperial IPA. Brewed with apricot puree and ginger for a sweet and spicy profile, this multidimensional beer will help you see things more clearly.

Draft. Medium gold in color with a large head. Aroma has hints of the fruity ginger, hay and notes of grass. Taste is.....nasty. This combination just does not go together.

Bouteille via trade, thanks to Skeezerpleezer. Léger orangé, col crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme offre un bouquet plaisant versa directement sur le gingembre accompagné d’un léger rétro herbacé et fruité surtout d’abricot. Malt grains perce plus en rétro-nasal et se fait plus présent une fois que la bière s’ouvre avec la t°. Le gingembre en demeure cependant bien présent et peut paraître être dominant. Palais est épicé marquant de suite le coche avec le gingembre. L’abricot et son côté velu atténue cette sensation poudreuse d’épicé. Malts sont présents et ajoute un côté caramel, pâle avec sur la fin un houblonné qui apporte tout de même des notes herbacées et finement fruitées d’agrumes.

12 oz bottle at jcos' place, 10.29.15. Hazy orange with a sheeting head. Spotty lace. Heavy ginger over some tropical fruit in both the aroma and flavor. Decent mouthfeel. Average carbonation. Ultimately, this one has to much ginger for my taste. Lacks balance.

(Thanks, James "jbruner") Bottle. A- Ginger, apricots. A- Orange color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Ginger, apricots. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, refreshing finish. O- Looking at my notes, one would think this is pretty one dimensional. Yes, there is a ton of ginger and a bit of apricots and stone fruits peak through, but it was very tasty. The ginger was strong but not overpowering. Not much bitterness and just an all around refreshing beer. Didn’t know if I’d like it or not beforehand but really enjoyed it.

Pours hazy burnt orange color with off white head. Aromas of apricot, ginger, grapefruut, and caramel. Lots of ginger flavor with some apricot and some grapefruit. Medium body with average carbonation. If you don’t like ginger you won’t like this beer.

Pours hazy orange/amber with a generous lacey white head. Fruity aroma of citrus and apricot. The flavor is IPA with apricot and ginger. Long spicy ginger finish. Each sip is more and more ginger.
