I pulled this beer out of the box and said, "This beer is going to be terrible." I assume this is brewed from the same base as their hefeweizen, and this is also unfiltered, not that there is a terrible amount of solids in it. Nose is a a overripe, sitting-in-the-sun melon smell. Apricot is definitely present on the palate, would be almost sweet, if not tempered by the wheat. Finish is a bit too persistent, leaving a cloying, candy feeling. Color and mouthfeel are the same as their hefe. Not the worst fruit-based beer I've had and better than Ithaca. Might be an ok beer to have at a barbecue but only one.
