Pours cloudy golden yellow with a white head that disappears almost immediately. Wheat aroma. Flavor starts sour and finishes with a mild wheat taste. There was a slight citrus flavor but I was expecting much more peach, there was hardly any. It was still a pretty good beer that was interesting to drink. I would like to try more of this style.

Bottle... I have had this on tap but thought it was just as good in a bottle. Pours a hazy yellow color, not much head. Carbonated with a light texture. Flavor is a tart, peachy lemon flavor that I cant put exactly put my finger on. But overall a good summer time brew that I always look forward to!******UPDATE****** The more I have this, the more I like it. It is different then most beers. Light but still tasty, which makes it perfect for those hot days. It also introduced me to the world of Berliner Weisse beers. A summer time favorite for me that wont go out of style.

Draught: cloudy dark yellow color. What first came to my mind when I smelled this beer was bile. Then I proceeded to drink it and the first taste that came to mind was that of vomit. With that said though, this wasn’t a bad beer when I got past the puke thing. Interesting taste reminiscent of tart fruit punch without a noticeable peach flavor as expected. I traded this with my girlfriend at the bar as she is more into this flavor and she ordered an awesome beer. But I will have to try this unique beer again.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a cloudy yellow with no head. Taste: Peaches (duh) some citrus notes, and a fizzy finish.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy yellow, looks like lemonade with alot of rapidly rising bubbles. Scent of fermenting peaches, taste is very tart and acidic, almost wine like but with a prickly carbonation. Deffinitely different... and not bad i guess.

From the bottle pours a hazy orange with a large head. The aroma is of peaches slightly with some malts. The first sip nails you. I mean, it hits you hard. It is all fruit. It is like drinking peach concentrate. If I liked peaches better I would probably like this. I give an A for credit though.

Lupulin Reunulin. cloudy gold. mild aroma (maybe because it was poured en masse and then waited?) with light lemon zest. flavor is malt, tart, refreshing. peaches are subdued. delicious

On tap at Redlight Redlight. This beer pours a clearish hazy yellow and has an aroma of tart peaches with some citrus mixed in. This year the beer is remarkably refreshing and bolder than last year. It is pretty good, similar to a good wheat beer.
