Dogfish Head Festina Peche

Brewed by Dogfish Head Brewery
Style: Berliner Weisse
Milton, Delaware USA

This beer burns my mouth! Smells a little like urine, and kind looks like it also. The aftertaste leaves a bite that is supposed to be peaches i think, but it taste like burning throw up. Wont ever get his beer again!

cloudy yellow with white head, the aroma is peach and the flavor is sour and sweet.

courtesy of topherdrinks, thanks chris! Pours a pale hazy colour with a small white head that dissapates to nothing. Nose is musty, sour, tannins and light ripe peach. Initial taste is sour and salty with micro bubble mouthfeel. White wine and apples on the mid palate. Finishing salty, vinous and dry. Light bodied. Palate duration is average. I really wish more berliner-weisse’s were to hit the market, nice job DFH!

Aroma, slightly metallic, and I get a bit of a nice brett nose. color murky gold. Flavor for this beer was spot on, got some peach fruit in finish, tart with some lemon zest. not a big fan of DF and the over the top attitude with beer, but this beer shows a well crafted beer with restraint that makes it shine.

Wow, this beer has a nice smell, but a non-beer type flavor to it. Looks like carbonated fruit juice. It has the taste of fruit flavored sparkling wine. People have mentioned the strong aroma and taste of champagne. This could not be closer to ther truth. The strong fruit aroma is decent. This beer has a nice translucent gold/peach color. When I say peach color I mean the inside of a peach and not the outside. The beer is somewhat tart, maybe the beer is a bit old. Anyways, the sparkling fruit wine flavor dominates. A slight presence of hops, I guess. The beer is relatively smooth, but palate doesn’t make up for the crap flavor. This beer is not something I could see myself drinking a lot. There beer would probably appeal to those who don’t like the "beer" flavor.

Bottle pours a hazy, unfiltered pale golden color. Mild sweet peach aroma, expected a more potent scent. Slightly sweet initial taste with a very tart aftertaste...nice! Interesting mouthfeel with lots of carbonation, almost champagne-like. Not your typical beer, but a very refreshing change of pace.

Hazy yellow amber with a fizzy white head. Malty peach aroma, tangy peach seltzer taste. Decent.

12 oz. bottle pours an extra foamy huge head with some staying power. The aroma is decidedly less peachy than I expected. Taste is similarly not so peachy, but a very nice saltly sourness. Definitely my kind of sour ale. Overall, I wanted more peaches, many more.
