Pours yellow color. Aroma is a bit sour. Flavor is somewhere between a white wine and tart grape juice. mouthfeel is fine, overall i like it. An interesting, refreshing, different type of beer.

The aroma is sour and fruity. Cloudy yellow pour with almost no head. Good flavor of tart, green apples, it’s fruity and refreshing, almost puckering.

Bottle... Poured yellow with literally no head. Aroma of tropical fruit juice and tart esters. Very carbonated and attacked the palate nicely. Very sweet and fruity flavors and very sour towards the finish and an aftertaste of yeast. I could taste the peach a little, but definitely not over bearing which was good. Would have gotten a lot higher of a rating from me if it had even a tiny bit of a crown.

12 oz bottle. Pours a cloudy light amber color, the aroma more bitter than I was expecting from something with peach on the label. The taste was also sour, and my first thought was someone doesn’t know the difference between peaches and lemons. Perhaps it’s because it’s later in the season and the brew is souring somewhat, I don’t know, but I was not impressed. And it was on sale buy one get one. You get what you pay for...

Pours a cloudy light orange from the bottle with no discernable head. Smells of sour peaches and tastes just like a sour beer. This being my first Berliner Weisse, I was expecting something sweeter and less yeasty, yet still found this brew’s taste to be acceptable.

Pours up very light in color with almost no head to speak of. Aroma has subtle peach in it with some strawlike things going on in the background. Very carbonated with a nice balance between the sour twang and the peach coming through in the background. I really like this and wouldn’t mind even more of a peach presence although it’s balanced nicely as is.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with no head of which to speak. Tastes like someone unloaded a pack of sour skittles into some water. That may not sound appealing, but I’m really liking this. First experience with a berliner weisse but definitely not my last.
