Sounds a bit like bamboo how quickly it grows! (I've heard bambooo isn't so good for brewing beer though) :-) @Rnast - #9 huh?

They grow on a vine. The vine is insane, it can grow up to 1 foot per day in the right conditions. @ Scott – Hops are a flower. They grow on a vine.

I'm very intrigued in how they tweaked it. I'd compare Aprihop with Magic Hat's #9. I definitely get apricots. Not a "fruit beer", but as their slogan says - "not quite a pale ale" either. Tasty and very refreshing way to welcome in some of the first nice days of spring. I have a couple of bottles in my fridge right now. I enjoyed Aprihop last year, but haven’t tried it this year yet.

I cant wait to try it now!

Your tastes probably did as well, but the beer definitely would have tasted fairly different from when it was fresh. @Don – I don’t believe Nugget Nectar is fruit flavored.
