Sea Dog Apricot Wheat Ale

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

Pours a clear gold head with no head. The aroma is a nose full of sweet apricot. The mouthfeel is smooth. The taste is wheat & malt on the front of the tongue and apricot on the back.

pours a clear yellow in color with some hints of amber hues and no visible carbonation. It poured with a thin off white head that eventually completely faded away. The aroma is moderately strong aromas of apricots, similar to what you would get if you sniffed a jar of apricot preserves. No wheat aroma. The taste prominently features flavors of apricots without any associated sweetness. No wheat is detectable. The apricot taste seems artificial, something off here. The mouth feel is light-bodied on the palate and has a low to moderate amount of carbonation. Normally love fruit wheat beers and Sea Dog beers but the taste on this one misses the mark.

Like a fruit perfume on the nose. Too light bodied and flavored to be taken too seriously, but not quite as bad as the 3rd percentile would imply. Pleasant apricot flavor, but NOTHING else. Weak, if non-offensive.

Clear gold with small white head--really not much of a looker but that is unfortunately the best aspect of this beer. It goes all downhill from here. Artificial orange perfumey aroma. Tastes like orange Pine-sol. Just an all-around bad beer, even considering my lowered expectations for fruit beers.

Let this one warm and it actually gets better. A Bright sunshine in color. Unfortunately not much to the sudsy textured, white head. It disappears quickly and there's no lacing left behind. It is all about apricots in aroma and flavor. Some creaminess in the light body.

Medium clear amber pour with a quickly fading white head and no lacing. Sweet apricot aroma - big - with little else but some beer in the background. Imagine a giant Apricot Jolly Rancher candy - that is the flavor, but overly fake watered down canned apricots, overly sweetened and nothing BUT that. Still better than their horrid Raspberry concoction. Still a No.

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.

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.
