This beer is a farmhouse ale brewed with over 50-pounds of fresh apricots per barrel. Look for Apricot Love Ale to hit 6.4%-AbV and you’re looking at the 500ml bottle. We also have Crimson Fawn sour farmhouse ale (6.5%-ABV) and 2015 Kriek barrel-aged fruit ale (6.3%-ABV, 375ml bottle).

500 ml bottle into tulip glass; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours hazy deep golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice dense soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a large amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas big apricot, peach, pineapple, berry, mango, melon, lemon, pear, wheat, cracker, light honey, hay, straw, grass, light pepper/funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/earthy yeast, apricots, and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big apricot, peach, pineapple, berry, mango, melon, lemon, pear, wheat, cracker, light honey, hay, straw, grass, light pepper/funk, and yeast earthiness. Light yeast spiciness and slight fruit tartness on the finish; with lingering notes of apricot, peach, pineapple, berry, mango, melon, lemon, pear, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/earthy yeast, apricots, and moderate pale malt sweetness; with zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light-moderate dryness. High carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/grainy, and slightly acidic mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 6.3%. Overall this is an excellent fruited Brett saison! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/earthy yeast, apricots, and moderate pale malt sweetness; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the high carbonation. A very enjoyable offering.

6oz draft at brewery. Thick muted golden color, too solid to see through. A soft natural Apricot flavor with a bit of a hop bitterness finish. A little lactose like sweetness. It’s definitely not a sour or wild, maybe a bit of a hop beer with fruit. But mostly a non-shitty actual fruit beer.
