Samuel Smith Organic Apricot Ale

A fruit beer that fully embraces its fruit addition. The juicy aromas of dried apricot, fuzz and all, are lively in the glass, with undertones of peach and pear. Light, breezy and refreshing while still having a medium body makes this ideal for summer picnics or gatherings in the park.

Handcrafted in Melbourne Bros' tiny brewery set in a time warp in Stamford using the old manually operated brewing equipment. Finest organically grown barley and wheat are used to create a complex ale which, having undergone primary and secondary fermentation with different yeasts and extended maturation, is taken to Samuel Smith's small, independent British brewery at Tadcaster. There it is blended with pure organic apricot fruit juice and a previously cellared organic brew -- creating an unparalleled fruit ale. The smooth distinctive character of the matured ale serves as the perfect counterpoint to the pure organic fruit juice.
