12oz bottle. Pours a hazy yellow color with a small white head that fell away very quickly. Aroma is grainy bready sour peach. Flavor is tart lemon, grainy wheat some peach in the finish. Pretty simple beer, not much going on here. Good on a hot summer day or evening as it were, glad I only bought 3 bottles.

Clear blonde; white head. Sour tart, light bodied. Slightly syrupy texture lending a little sweetness. Quite drinkable but would be even better if it was straight up unsweetened.

I drank this from the bottle into a chalice. This beer pours a very uninspriring cloudy gold with no head or lacing, but it did bubble like champagne. It smelled sweet like white wine, with a hint of peach. It tatsed very bland, a sligh peach flavor there but a very boring simple beer. If I didn’t know any better I would have thought I was drinking a bad white wine. Run, away from this poor effort.

A bit too tart for my liking. Not to say on a scorching hot summer day I wouldn’t mind having this around. Girlfriend loves the stuff and it’s what finally got her into beer drinking. Definitely try a bottle before a case, very sour and tart similiar to lemonade. Overall a good hot weather brew from DFH.

Pours a hazy straw yellow with a small short lived head. Aroma is sweet and grainy. There are tart lemons, tangy wheat, and sweet fruit (maybe peach?) on the nose. It tastes like biting into a lemon initially. Straw, hints of orange and grapefruit, tangy wheat, dusty basement, bread, and a hint of peach in the finish as it warms. Light carbonation. Simple, sour and quite enjoyable... Though not overly complex.

Bottled.. Pours straw yellow with lots of carbonation and no head.. Aroma was doughy and bready. Flavor was nice and tart with some lemon notes and peach at the end.. Thin with lively carbonation..Easy to drink.. I like.
