4-pack. Head starts larger on very pale yellow beer. As head quickly sinks the beer changes to a slightly cloudy dark yellow. Aroma starts out very strong and peachy but retreats back into the liquid with the head. Tart tasty summer beer. A nice change of pace from standard wheat beers. Not overly strong peach notes, almost have to squeeze the juice out of the aftertaste. Keeps tartness to the end. Flavour could be stronger.

Bottle from City Beer in SF. Sorry Sam, I love DFH beers in general but this wasn’t one of my favorites. Golden color with a fizzy white head. Light, tart aroma with lemon and peach. Flavor fairly sour with lemon, peach, and unripe white grapes. Crisp, dry, and light - true to the style but not the best example I’ve had.

True to Berliner wiesse style, has sour aroma (like rancid milk), plus apricot peel. Very light body with mineral and tart peach flavors.

Looks and tastes like wine. Kinda smells like wine. Very acidic. Medium white head, yellow unclear color. Kinda looks like budweiser mixed with white wine. First time Dogfish Head has let me down... I thought they could do no wrong! Misleading with peach taste.. more sour than anything.

Bottle. Hazy yellow pour, fruity aroma. For me, it was too fruity and too acidic. If you want a fruit beer, it’s a great call, but not my thing.

On tap at Stone. I disagree with the haters on this one. Hazy pale yellow, like lemonaide. Solid thick white head. Fizzy. Citrus and yeast on the nose. Lightly sweet. Taste is lemon sour, and lightly tart. Very dry and puckering. Yeasty. Light sour afters. Lemon and grape. All flavors are light. Light and refreshing, like a soda or cooler.
