Another eminently sensibly named beer from the Abbotsford crew that comes complete with another eminently sensible label. Just don't try and locate it via the label as they decided to make this batch keg-only. The beer was offered up for sampling at last month's Fed Square Microbreweries Showcase, alongside the Artisan Pouseure (sic), which will soon appear in bottles (confused yet?). It's an apricot IPA and, in keeping with Moon Dog tradition, tips the scales close to 10 per cent ABV. Brewer Josh tells us: "Uses NZ hops, heaps of blended turkish dried apricots in the boil. Rather delish! 9.2 per cent, smooth bitterness. I'm incredibly hung over and haven't been home yet so am struggling for much in the way of descriptors......... sorry!" As are we, Josh, As are we.
