Aurelian Lure is barrel-aged wild ale re-fermented with apricots.
We barrel-aged beer brewed with well water, Texas grain, and a blend of fresh and aged hops for about a year in neutral oak. We then created a blend and added fresh, hand-processed apricots at a ratio of four pounds per gallon. The result is a highly aromatic beer bursting with fresh, tangy apricot flavor. We hope you enjoy the return of one of our favorite fruit beers we make at Jester King.

Bottle thanks to MikeWoj. Pours clear golden apple, small white head, dissipates quickly , some lacing. Aroma is stonefruit, skins, some oak, mineral water, light brett, hints of nail polish remover. Flavor is dry, medium tart, a bit harsh and acetonic, light funk, some dirty socks along with stonefruit, mineral water again. Light body, lingering tartness. Try as I might I just can’t get into Jester King.

Bottle during RBWG hotel lobby tasting night 1, 19/02/15 thanks to whomever supplied this juan. Murky yellow with moderate off white spotting. Nose is pissy, melon, light acidic vibes, tangy lemon, damp straw. Taste comprises tangy apricot, musty wood, lemon rind, pissy citrics. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light acidic rise. Solid stuff, great depth for ABV.

Bottle at Alvinne Craft Beer Fest in Vichte - Belgium March 2015 with markoijelena. Pours a completely cloudy apple juice-like color, minimal white head which lowers fast. Nose: summer fruit, apricot blast, jasmine. Mouth: frizzy, prosecco, a bit disappointed considering the great nose, thin. Bummer!

@ ACBF 2015. Pale yellow colour, notes of vinegar, lemon and kiwi. Very tart but also fruity. Didn’t detect any apricots.

[2/13/15] Bottle sample at Almanac & Friends Sourfest at Public House in San Francisco. Hazy shiny yellow. Lovely apricot aroma with some oak, a lactic note and a funky touch. Sour flavor with apricot. Medium-bodied. Great stuff.

75cl bottle sample @ ACBF 2015. Dorée sur un léger orangé, col fin blanc. Arôme met de suite en évidence un bouquet fruité d’abricot avec un parfum qui est très agréable. Le côté levure sauvage - brett reste bien présent sans être surfait. Palais alterne les saveurs entre fruité-abricot et léger côté aigrelet. Retrouve pas mal du caractère boisé de chêne pour un palais mi-sec avec une belle restitution du caractère de l’abricot, notamment de la peau. Rivalise avec sa concurrente belge de Cantillon.

No head left, white white coloured beer. Very subtle fruitaroma (peach or apricot, but also Chardonnay or white Priorat wine). Immensel luring aroma, yet quite held back. Sour, and again a tumble of unknown, exotic fruit. Some spice in the finish, hints at vanilla and lime. Bit undercarbonated, not disturbingly. Medium bodied, mild acidburn. Again a truly impressive beer by JK.

Sampled 500 ml. bottle @ ACBF 2015. Hazy peach golden, little white head. Nose is huge lactic apricot, light peach, fruit has a very lactic Jester King profile,… Taste is nicely sour & mineral apricot, fruit is quite lactic, lightly puckering but still distinct fruit profile, has that mineral, lightly salty profile of the current wild Jester King line-up, lightly puckering,… Body is sparkling, mineral, fruity,… Quite impressive,…. (Thanks for sharing people!!!)
