The second volume of our Anniversary Series is this Belgian-style apricot ale. Pours a golden-orange color from the apricot purée with a fine, off-white head. The apricot-forward nose, followed by spice and malt, gives way to mild pear and melon esters followed by a biscuity malt aroma. The fruit melds well with the malty sweetness, like apricot preserves on a fresh baked biscuit, while earthy and spicy U.S. Saaz hops balance the sweet entry. Apricot, malt, and spicy hop flavors all linger, a refreshing crowd pleaser on a summer day. This fruit-infused Belgian begs to be paired with a turkey leg with an apricot glaze, grilled chicken topped with apricot or peach relish, or a tempeh wrap with apricot chutney. Also try it with a wedge of earthy and nutty gruyere.

    Managed to score a leftover bottle at Hop City Westside. Pours clear, somewhat bubbly amber with a thick and frothy eggshell head. Malt, apricot, yeast, and a hint of spice comprise the mouth-watering aroma. Flavor is fruitier and spicier than the aroma, and bolder; hints of banana and mango peep through. Texture presents decent body and fizz. Too bad this is gone now.
