yespr (11613), Copenhagen O, Denmark Nov 27, 2008 12 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy orange with a diminished white head. Citric and mild peachy aroma. Citric and acidic with a solid fruity peachy accent, although quite dominated by a intense citric base flavour. Smooth finish with a bit of more smooth peachy finish appearing. penguinjive7 (67), Buffalo, New York, USA Nov 21, 2008 Pours a cloudy Yellow color with a white frothy head.
Smell is of citrus and wheat.
The taste is of bitter citrus with the wheat flavor coming in on the finish. Not really tasting the peach in this one.
Carbonation is done well and is balanced.
This is a very refreshing brew and is perfect for a hot summer day. There is not much of an actual peach flavor, but I love the sour citrus flavor it has. I would get this again in a second, another great brew by Dogfish Head.
Reviewed on: 08-10-2007 elihapa (1033), Honolulu, California, USA Nov 20, 2008 11/10/08 notes: bottle, from Bob’s Package in CT. Pours extremely pale, with scant head. Aroma is very corny, with hay and sugar. Not unlike natural light, and yes, that is an insult. Flavor was refreshingly tart, a crisp, green apple, lemon, peach profile with little discernable hops or malt. Thankfully, the grain in the nose did not show itself in the body. Finishes dry, which of course accentuates the tartness of the flavor. Nevertheless, I’d say Festina Peche is an experience I would deem rather uncomfortable.
jimmack34 (560), Lancaster, Ohio, USA Nov 20, 2008 I didnt pour this one into a glass. Smelled faintly like peach, but more of just sweet malt. Tasted like fermented peach, honey, some seasoning present. Kind of a tart/sour aftertaste. Plenty of body, though. kennydiaz (182), staten island, New York, USA Nov 20, 2008 A LITTLE WEIRD BUT OVERALL IT WORKED FOR ME. THE PEACH TASTE WAS PRESENT BUT NOT OVERWHELMINGLY SWEET. IT ID MEDIOCRE AT BEST FOR DOGFISH HEAD. joergen (8429), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 20, 2008 Bottle.
Hazy yellow coloured with a huge but fast disappearing white head.
Fruity aroma of spices, yeast and peaches.
Fruity flavour of peaches, lactic acid and spices with acidic notes.
Tart finish. Papsoe (14613), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 18, 2008 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of SoLan. Hazy pale golden with a tall and very lively off-white head that works itself out of the bottle. Tart lactic aroma. Light-bodied, astringently tart with a whiff of peach. Overly carbonated. Astringent lactic tartness. 131108 badgerben (3584), Blaine, Minnesota, USA Oct 31, 2008 Hazy yellow color with a very thin head. Aroma of peach skins and a little marshmallow. Mallow continues to taste. Light tart malt and a bit of lemon. Can’t pick up much wheat. Enjoyable.
