About This Beer

I tried making shortbread once. It did not go well.

APPARENTLY you’re supposed to use butter that’s soft, but not melted, chill your dough twice…yada yada. Let’s just say I didn’t do any of that fancy stuff, and my shortbread ended up tasting kinda sad.

Thank GOODNESS for Drekker’s Slang Du Jour — Apricot Shortbread. They stuffed each batch full of sumptuous apricts, sweet-nutty almonds, real shortbread cookies, cinnomony granola, milky coconut, and silky vanilla beans.

Tasting Notes

Every delectable sip blossoms with bright nuances of sliced stone fruit, rounded out by sugar-dusted cookies, and a spicy-sweet hint of cinnamon. The coconut gives an effortless tropical twist, begging another indulgent swig.

Good but not great, they definitely have better varieties to choose from. Worth a try but not going to stay in the rotation as a regular.

Typical solid dessert beer from Drekker. Could have used a bit more sweetness on the finish.

love me a Drekker sour and this no exception. refreshing apricot starts things off then fading to almond cookie finish

I bought several "slang du jour" beers to compare different ingredients. Very special and unique. it was literally a liquid bread

Tasty but not as “sour” as we had hoped, definitely on the sweeter side and oddly not as bubbly as most beers. Not bad but not our favorite.

Bright flavor of fresh, tart apricots and vanilla. Buttery, cinnamon sugar biscuit aroma. Thick and syrupy mouthfeel, with notes of almond skin. A cookie jar’s worth of dessert goodness!

Get to watch some FB. edition. This is incredible. The cookie leads and delights, with the apricot shining with sweetness. Finishes with a hint of cinnamon. Amazing to me how they mail their flavors.
