St.-Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale

Yet another quality offering from Montreal's McAuslan Brewing Inc., the St.-Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale is charmant.  Sold in 341mL bottles, the A.W.A. contains 5% alcohol. The ale is clear and golden, riddled with lively carbonation, and topped with a bright white head. It leaves behind a healthy amount of lace.

There's an undeniable apricot aroma and apricot flavour throughout, superimposed over a beery body that goes from sweet to bitter.

It''s a nice, approachable fruit beer; one that is likely to appeal to a wide range of beer fans. Though I don't drink the stuff all that frequently, I find myself getting cravings for it every once in a while, and it always delivers.

Rating: 8.0 out of 10.
