Bottle: Poured a golden yellow with not too much head. The aroma was of peaches and wheat. The flavor was a bit sour, peachy but crisp and refreshing. Another good brew from DFH.

Not as peachy as I thought it would be. Quite a nice fruit flaour. Thanks to Piscator for the sample.

Bottled sample via radiomgb. Light gold in colour with lively carbonation. Strong citric notes dominate the aroma, with some secondary elements of stale malt, flowers, and peaches. Not too peach-like in the mouth, but there’s a fair bit of lemon and dry malt flavor. Pretty much bone dry on the palate. Refreshing, tart, and mild, and perhaps a little thin. Pretty good overall.

Pours a very hazy honey gold with very thin white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is like a carbonated peach juice. Flavor is tart peach and wheat. Body is light and highly carbonated. Definitely reminiscent of a champagne.

Hazy golden with a thin head. Nice tart wheat and sour peach aromas. Smooth with light carbonation. Nice mildly sour pit fruit flavors with tart wheat mirrors the aroma. Not too bad... Draft@ Belmont Station’s Pucker Fest.

Pours yellow with rising bubbles of carbonation. Slightly sweet smell of peaches. Fruity sweet flavor is where you really get the peach. Sticky but satisfying finish.

I’m not usually big on fruit beers, but Dogfish Head seems to do an excellent job brewing these (Actually they do an excellent job with just about everything). This beer poured a light gold color with little head and little lacing. Aroma is, you guessed it, peach. Not too heavy though. Taste was crisp and tart. This beer is definately a summer staple in my fridge. Great Dogfish brew.
