Peaches are the only aroma component, and even that was faint. Pours very pale, large white head continually regenerated by effervescence. Flavor is tart but not so much as in some berliners, peaches are present but subdued, mild lemonzest bitterness. Pronouncedly dry mouthfeel.

Was given a bottle and absolutely loved it. The aroma is a fruity peachy smell, the body is light, much like many wines. While others found this sour, that was not the case for me. Great peach taste to it, not overpowering and I strongly recommend this if you want a beer that has a wine taste to it.

Hazy yellow/orange with large white head. Sourish aroma with citric and peachy notes. Sour and peachy flavour with yeasty notes. Sour finish.

As far as fruit beers go, this one is pretty tasty, but I like peaches pretty well too. Has a strong aroma of peaches, with a light lemony yellow color. Good strong peach flavor. Rather light and airy on the palate. Good dinner beer.

Pours a very clear, paleish color. Almost looked like champagne. Faint aroma of tart peach and lemon, even tasted a lot like a faintly peach flavored Champagne and the weird thing is that it was not too bad. I did not think I would like it but this is something I could drink a couple of during the summer.

750ml botte. Poured a pale orange color with a small thin white head that dissipated almost immediately. Nose was a stale peach aroma with a mediciny tones. The first taste is terrible and incredibly sour up front. Mouthfeel was watery and flavor was more cough syrup fruity, which led to a very srange after-taste in the finish.

Bottle. Tart acid peach taste. Citrusy and thin. Not too sweet though which helps this one out.

Tart. I like this beer, I wasn’t sure what to expect but I like it. Pours a hazy orange/yellow. White head that leaves quickly. Peach and a bit sour to the nose.
