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.

6/III/15 - 75cl bottle @ ACBF 2015 (Vichte) - BB: n/a (2015-276) Thanks to all for sharing today's beers!
Clear pale watery coloured beer, with a thin copper coloured shine to it, very weird. Small to no head. Aroma: funky, sourish, overripe fruits, rotting leafs, earthy. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very sourish, vinegar like acidity, bit off, weird. Aftertaste: sourish, lemon juice, a bit off.

Bottle: Light yellow/golden color with a small white head. Nose is zest, tart, and faintly fruity. Pretty sour taste, but it goes along with a great use of fruit. A ripe peach skin flavor that I really like… wait, wait its apricot! Nice balance a use of flavor with the heavy sourness. Like cheesecake, a small pour goes a long way. Badass. Thanks Rich.

Bottle shared during the first Late Nite session of RBWG 2015. Pours hazy, pale yellow with a fading white foam head. Nice whispy lemon aroma, light lactic notes. Sharp acidity in the flavor, some peach notes, perhaps apricot, tart lemons. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Cleansing acidity on the finish as well, some cutting lemon juice, a bit of pale dough, melon and peach. Very nice.

Blend-2. Enjoyed @ 40F in a snifter split 2 ways @ home. Thanks to my buddy in texas who keeps bringing these sours to me in exchange for VT bottles I have sitting around.
A - This is a light yellow to gold color, fizzy head that faded fast, just a little bit of cloudiness.
S - Pear, apple and a lot of sulphur / rotten egg aroma.
T - Taste is very sour. Pretty intense. Sulphur, apricot at the middle and finish. Very acidic, sour candies, lemon and yeasty finish.
M - Thin mouthfeel, like 7-up or sprite or maybe seltzer water
O - man, these thin very acidic american wild ales are really wearing on me.I need to just drink Lambic pretty much as all I drink. This is just way too tart.

Bottle. Nose of apricot, vanilla, yogurt, just a touch of vinegar. Pale salmon-orange-golden color with lace. Tart apricot flavor, yogurt, nice level of acidity. Would love to try this next to a Foufoune. Much less acidic, plus more lactic and very drinkable. Great.
