Sour straw, biscuits, and spicy citrus nose. Hazy gold color, tiny head. Subtle soft peach sweet followed by floral sour-bitterness. Effervescent, slightly thin body, but extremely refreshing. A very pleasant slightly fruity sour ale...really tasty.

Bottle into Sniffer. Pours golden, but a bit dirty with a white frothy head. Smells of peaches (obviously) and wheat. Has a good peach taste, but a bit acidic and overly carbonated. Overall, a good brew.

This is a very light and easy beer to drink. Very sour and tart- a very enjoyable beer to drink.

This is a fantastic beer I thought. It is particularly bland looking, but the fruitiness in this beer is sharp and acidic, like a mild sour ale, and the vinous notes draw heavily on the more subtle flavors of dough, caramel malts, and sour bitter peach. Not necessarily complex, but I could drink a dozen of these and never grow tired of the crisp flavor.

I hope that I just had a bad bottle. When I first poured it, the aroma of Tuna was overwhelming. That alone about knocked me down. But then when I tasted it, I could only distinguish rotten sourness. Yugh...I’m very stingy with beer and I almost never pour it down the drain. However, i just couldn’t stomach this. It was one of the worst I’ve ever had. I will try it again soon and rerate since it’s the Dogfish Head Brewery. I don’t believe that they would product something so awful, had to be a bad bottle.

An almost champagne aroma with hints of apple. Very clean golden pour with tight white head and lace that goes quickly. A very wine flavor that is a bit tart but smooth and refreshing. Carbonation is good and mouthfeel is solid. A pretty nice beer in an odd way.

Bottle. Foggy, white pour with medium head. Very light aroma of wheat and peach with a touch of tartness. Upfront sour flavor, followed by some peach, citrus with an acidic bite in the finish.
