Wasatch Apricot Hefeweizen

This is a 4.0% ABV beer with a natural apricot flavor. It is from Wasatch Beers, of Park City, Utah, part of the Utah Brewers Cooperative out of Salt Lake City. 

The beer pours golden in color, with a tinge of, oh, I don’t know, apricot shall we say? There is about an inch of white fuzzy head that disappears quickly. The aroma is big, round, juicy apricot, and lots of it, over toasted wheat. The taste reverses the aroma, hitting you first with a big blast of toasted wheat, then an apricot lighter than the aroma, like dark wheat toast with a sheen of apricot jam. If you like apricots and beer, then you can’t lose on this one.
