Draft. Pours a hazy straw/melon yellow. White peach with an astringent layer. The peach flavors are nice but not really integrated into the beer.

Had no idea this was a weisse--tasted like a standard sour to me. The color is a bit off putting, a light lemon with essentially no head. The aroma is of faint fuzzy peach. The extreme sourness others claim was definitely not present, however. The taste is of tart peaches and a bit of lemon, but nothing overwhelming. This beer is crisp and refreshing, making it a great summer beer.

Extremely pale yet extremely cloudy. Aroma is mostly of malts and peach extract. Has a very bitter flavor. Wow! Almost as if a bunch of warheads were put in while this was brewing. It’s weird but works out pretty well. Definitely has a bite in the end. Not sure what to think about this one. I think I like it.

I really only got this bottle for the rare style and the unique Dogfish Head bottle. This beer pours like water and is colored like a lemon jolly-rancher sat at the bottom and dissolved. Head is small, nearly non-existent white color with an OK body for a Berliner. Wasn’t confronted with strong peach aromas but the flavor leaves a very distinguishable peach flavor and mouthfeel. A good session beer if you can stand the sour flavor, but for a stout guy, this beer one brew was refreshing.

(bottle) golden colour, faint hard (for me) to define aroma, taste is weakish, sour beer, not much fruit, clean short finish - at the first try rather unattractive

12oz bottle. Not really my thing but really not that bad for a fruit beer. Very tart and light almost like a hard cider.

Whenever I throw a meet the brewer party with dogfish head beers with some friends this is the beer I always start with. Its very light highly carbonated beer that everyone even those people who claim they don’t like beer. Pours a pail gold color no head and smell of peach and citrus. Taste is tart with a peach finish. This beer is very easy to drink.
