Bottled as Kennebunkport Apricot Wheat. Color is a fairly light amber/gold with a minimal head and a nice number of carbonation streams flowing toward the surface. Aromas are solid apricots... that’s it... almost an apricot marmolade or something. Not quite fake, but not 100% natural, either. Elements in the flavor that I found interesting: the wheat notes come through very clearly in the aftertaste, but you have to kind of wait for them to get there before taking another sip; the apricot presence is much stronger in scent than in flavor; a kind of lemony/grassy hops presence matches the malt body nicely.

12 oz bottle...Dark brown with a tan head that leaves quite quick..distinct hazelnut aroma...watery body with an infused hazelnut flavor...not much to it...a little malt and hazelnut is all I get in the nose, and even if it is just added, it smells nice...unbalanced water vs. beer levels...no complexity, just hazelnut, but good flavor never the less..also added sour aromas as it sits for a minute and sour in the finish

Not a bad beer at all, especially for only $1. Powerful apricot aroma. Some wheat, and more apricot, wheat, and green tea in the flavor. Cloudy.

On Cask at Oldsmar Tap House. Pours up deep dark brown with infra red edges and firm lasting tan head. The aroma is mild with roastiness, faint caramel, faint burnt malts and a touch of oxidation. The taste is similar with roasted to burnt malts, mild oxidation and mild chocolate malt goodness. The finish the beer becomes toastier and roasty. Nice roasty offering. A bit on the bold side for a Porter which is to my liking.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café, Stockholm, 14 April 2008) Dark brown colour with frothy, pale brown head. Malty nose with hazelnuts and chocolate. Malty, nutty taste with notes of hazelnuts, chocolate and a decent cocoa bitterness in the finish. Not really complex but the nicely balanced hazelnut touch makes it quite enjoyable.

Bottle. Poured tawny gold with frothy white head. Faint floral aroma with an oleic touch. Middling flavour, not the hoppiness you would expect from an IPA. Resin in the finish aith a bit of butteriness. Commonplace and ordinary. Not worth taking extra effort to find.

12 oz Kennebunkport IPA from Trader Joe’s; Nose of weak caramel and wheat;clear copper with a medium beige head; flavor is caramel, with vannilla and clove notes; and this is supposed to be an IPA? I gues the cost of hops was too much so they just left them out!
