This beer is the phenomenon in my town. I am not a huge fan. Where were these people years back when I was in my Blue Paw phase?

A - Clear, orange-amber beer with a decent white foam white and good lacing sticking on the glass.

S - Very fruity and sweet, lightly tart, and not much else.

T - Dominant ringwood yeast yields apricot and honey sweetness, and a grainy mellow finish. This beer tastes slightly 'infused' with flavor, which is not a compliment.

M - Fairly light bodied, but rich and filling due to sweetness and carbonation.

D - Given the fact that it tastes as much like iced tea as beer, and that many people, especially hot chicks, are crazed over it, I would say it is very drinkable, if not personally that enjoyable. In other words, I could rock this stuff in order to take one for the team...

Had this from a mixed pack that my wife bought.
Looks hazy.
Smells like a dry apricot.
Flat and uninteresting flavor and mouthfeel.

I thought id give this a try since my wife seems to like it. Maybe her review will balance out my glaringly bad review.

Is the #9 in reference to how many attempts it took for them to get to this flavor profile? Maybe they should have a #10. Just sayin.
