Bottle. Sharp sour and fruity beer. Simple in it’s own unique way. Refreshing.

On tap at The Bier Stein in Eugene, OR. Poured a pale yellow with a white head. Not used to such a "light" beer from Dogfish. Light peach flavor backed with subtle citrus flavor. Nicely done beer, just not really my style.

12oz bottle. Pale yellow with a frothy white head that leaves some light lasting foam. The aroma is primarily an impression of peach yoghurt with some wheat crackers in the background. The flavor is dry and tart with the same yoghurt impression and a nice peachy fruitiness that is not sweet and annoying like I feared it might be. Light with ample carbonation. Feels good in the mouth for a light quaffer. A little clean for a berliner, but about as drinkable as possible.

I had this from the bottle. This tasted akin to club soda so not the best of this style I have tasted and I got very little peach from it. Light and clear straw color with a very small head. Kind of a urine aroma. Flavor is somewhat bland, light mouth feel. I will finish what I bought, but will have to think about buying more.

Nose is lactic sour, peach, oranges, lemon zest. Flavor is a nice clean lactic sourness, clean crisp malt, clean citrus zest. Real clean beer, not bad.

Note: I tried this about 2 months back and didn’t like it. I found the last of the 4-pack in my fridge and decided to kill it off. Didn’t mind it so much this time but did notice that it was bottle on 5/5/08, which could have something to do with why i didn’t like it. This beer pours a very pale, slightly hazy straw color with a thin white film of head that fades fast! Aroma is of sour peaches. Taste is similar to how it smells, slightly sweet, mostly bitter and if you REALLY try a slight wheat flavor before the bitter finish. Not really like a beer more of a tart, carbonated juice. Not much going on with the thin mouthfeel. I am a big fan of Dogfish and this is the least impressive brew I’ve had from them so far.
