Can thanks to Russell. Pours a hazy rose gold with small frothy off white head that lasts. The aroma is plum skin, wheat, cereal. Thin mouth, light tartness, plum skin, wheat, good.

Poured from a 16 oz can. Aroma has a moderate dry hop character with some herbal notes as well as some tropical fruit and citrus. Some light plum notes and hints of grain. Pours a fairly clear, rose color with some gold a nd red hues and a medium sized, moderately thick, slightly pinkish head that recedes immediately to the edges where it lingers for a bit. Flavor is slightly sweet with a medium light acidity. Medium plum notes with some light grain character. Light hop notes with a bit of grasy, herbal notes. Mouthfeel has a light body with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, I like this one more than the apricot one. The aroma is better and the plums don’t clash with the dry hopping. I still want to try the base beer though to see if it’s better than the fruited versions.
