Sampled from the tap at Mr. Brews Plover. Pours a clear light yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a strong sweet apricot note with sweet grains underlying. Flavor has lots of apricot with not much else coming through.

Bottle. A- Apricot juice. A- Golden color, clear liquid, white head. T- Apricot, wheat. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- By name, Stevens Point always makes me feel like I am buying a mediocre beer but after I finish one I am always reminded that their beer seems to be a lot better than the stigma attached. This had the right amount of apricot and it didn’t taste artificial. Not too sweet or unbalanced either. Pretty solid beer.

Sampled on draft at 3R6P this beer poured a hazy apricot color with a medium sized creamy white head that left a bit of lacing. The aroma was sweet sugar and apricot. The flavor was sweet and yeasty with a strong apricot note and a bit of jam. Long tangy apricot finish. Medium body. Tasty

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, bottled on 1/8/2015. Pours hazy golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger dense white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings one the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big apricot, peach, lemon, pear, apple, wheat, honey, cracker, light clove, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of apricot, citrus/floral hops, and pale malt notes; with good strength. Very bright and authentic fruity notes in the aromas. Taste of apricot, peach, lemon, pear, apple, wheat, honey, cracker, light clove, and floral/grassy earthiness. Slight herbal/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of apricot, peach, lemon, pear, apple, wheat, honey, cracker, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a short bit. Nice complexity and solid robustness of apricot, citrus/floral hops, and pale malt flavors; with a great malt/fruit balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth and fairly creamy/bready mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with zero warming present after the finish as expected of 5%. Overall this is a very good fruited wheat ale. All around good balance and solid robustness of apricot, citrus/floral hops, and pale malt flavors; and very smooth and crisp to drink. The aromas were more impressive than the flavors. A nicely enjoyable offering.

High hopes for this bottle. Nice fresh looking pour. Decent smell of apricots fur shure. Goes down easy especially for how warm it is. Some haze in thar. A little volatile at times, yet still creamy.

Single Bottle from HyVee, Ankeny, IA. I quite welcome the slightly heavy smell of apricot under the cap and in the pour. As expected, it overwhelms any smell of malt here, but this is a strongly scented fruit. Clean, clear golden color with a hint of rose under a fluffy white head. Taste has a bit of wheat and malt running neck and neck with an apricot flavor. Happily, it’s not too sweet, just enough to suggest a light apricot nectar. Not very much alcohol found in this. It is a little heavier than a light abv beer, suggesting some of the apricot was added after fermentation. Still, we have a nice fruit beer on the shelves just in time for summer.
