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.

Tap at Pap. The beginners sour ale I reckon. Color and aroma are anemic though not unappealing. Flavor of peach is slight and tart like Erics Sour Ale. Not quite refreshing, but certainly not cloying or syrupy. Skol!

Pours a cloudy orangish-golden color. THe head is white, fizzy, small, and extremely short lived. The aroma has a slight hint of peach with a touch of sourness. Slight sweetness and the forefront but quickly becomes tart with a barest hint of peach. Finishes on the palate with an astringint character.

Sampled from 12-oz bottle and shared by Badgerben. Pours a hazy burnt golden straw brew with a fizzy thin white head that dissipates to a thin ring. Aroma of candi sugar, golden grain malt, some tropical fruit, lemon zest, and a touch of peach. Taste is slightly tart, medium bodied, plenty of carbonation with some flavors of sugar, golden grain malt, some peach, lemon juice and a touch of tart apple. Finish is slightly dry with some tart character.

Aroma of peaches and sharp acid. Flavor is super-tart, with the wheat and peaches combining for an acidic, almost champagne mouthfeel. The tartness is great if you are in the mood for it, which I am, but if I wasn’t this would be an unpleasant beer at best. I really am having a tough time rating this one, so I will have to revisit it in a few weeks to try again. As it stands, here it is.
