This crisp wheat beer’s an ode to Okanagan summer, with an apricot flavour perfect for sunny days and the questionable tan lines that go with 'em.

This is nothing but beer pop. The base Weisse is nowhere to be found. All there is, is an overly sweet, cloying, artificial peach/apricot aroma and flavor. The beer tastes just like peach hard candies you get with your cheque at a restaurant. Not my bag.

Can at the office. Mostly clear and dull amber, lots of apricot on the nose. Sweet, light apricot, pretty dull base beer. Again a cheapo lowest common denominator sort of beer.

Part of their Summer Craft mixed 6-pack at the LCBO. This seasonal pours a hazy, amber colour with an off-white frothy head, good retention and patching lacing. Fresh dried apricot nose. The apricot is more subtle in the taste, with more of the wheat coming out. A little sweet, but not too much to ruin your taste buds after one bottle, or become heavy. The body leans on the light side, so this helps out as well. Makes this one an easy-drinking, fruity wheat beer for summer.

Very light beer. Not that rough because there isn’t much going on here. Pours cloudy orange with ok head, done lacing. Aromaa of bread yeast and some apricot. Bottle.

Dégustée en fût au Saint-Bock à Montréal. De couleur dorée-orangée et voilée. Nez fruité (abricots, notes d’agrumes), léger de blé avec des traces de houblon herbeux et de levures. Mince en bouche avec un pétillement élevé ainsi qu’une texture aqueuse. Goût fruité (abricots sucrés aux notes artificielles) avec des notes de levures fruitées (agrumes) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un léger goût de blé puis en finale des petites notes de houblon herbeux sont détectables. Post-goût court, composé d’un léger goût fruité (abricots) avec des notes de blé et de levures fruitées (zeste d’agrumes). (23 avril 2013)

On tap. Pours a cloudy yellow/brown with little head. Slight ripe peach aroma. Definite apricot/peach flavor. A weak fruit juice with alcohol. But pleasant enough when really cold.

Draught at Hops, New Westminster
Cloudy blond color. Aroma of apricot scent, candies and sugar. Dry and weak mouthfeel, poor beer, with no character, and just a dash of artificial candy fruit flavor.
Bad.
