"While i will admit it tastes a little similar to the No.9, it still has its own characteristics that set it aside from others. Magic Hat was actually 4 boothes away from this beer. This was a little sweeter, and a lot more wheat. Still similar cloudy orange body with a pleasent fresh apricot aroma. Taste is pleaseant and citrusy."

"Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is apricot and slight wheat. Flavour is paper, perfumed soap and that’s about it. Watery, and too biting carbonation. "

"For some reason I enjoy this breweries stuff and when I saw this one today at my local packy, I figured I would give it a shot. The aroma is purely sweet and full of apricot esters with some peachy overtones as well but it is a bit synthetic to some extent. The appearance is a golden yellow with some orange hues and really reminds me of how some pale lagers look and has a fuzzy head on top that is bleach-white and dissipates to a thin and lifeless head that remains on top. The mouthfeel is light-bodied and sweet with not much of any complexity noticeable as well as not much balance and the palate is very wet but thin and watery. The flavor is all sweet and apricots as well as some peaches and not as good as some of the other products these guys make and the sweetness is very cloying to me. Overall, I am glad I have some girls coming over tonight because I know they will like the lackluster attempt at a brew and I must say; I am very disappointed in this one. "

[4] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (2/9/2007 5:29:04 PM)
"Clear golden with a small dissapearing white head. Empty and artificial aroma of sweet apricots and metal. Thin, lifeless and sweet flavour of apricots, metal and grains. Thin mouthfeel with a short lightly yeasty finish of sweet apricots. "

"Magic Hat No. 9 anyone. This apricot beer is pretty darn similar I wouldn't be surprised if people were confused in a blind taste test. I'd recommend it if fruity beers is your sort of thing. "
