Pyramid Audacious Apricot Ale


☺☺☺½

Brewery: Pyramid Brewing Co.; Seattle, WA, Portland, OR, Berkeley, CA
Brew: Audacious Apricot Ale
Pour: Nice. Doesn't fall too quickly. Pretty foam.
Appearance: Colored like a hefeweizen, light orange. This is obviously a wheat ale. Zach says it looks like an overly ripe orange.
Aroma: Peaches and Cream (so says Zach), I say apricots. Maybe he's never had apricots. They are a little similar. But yes, an abundance of apricots and clove. Malty.
First sip: Off flavors of lemongrass. Very fruity. A bit apricoty, yes, but more mixed fruitiness than anything.
Mouthfeel: Not too heavy, but nice feel. Nice and fizzy for a few seconds before going down.
Finish: Delicate. Like if green had a flavor. Maybe I'm tasting that weird lemongrass again.
Notes: This beer also brought to you by Suzie and Zach Drink Beer Night.
