Bottled. A hazy light golden beer with a rim of beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of peaches. The flavor is both sweet and acidic, the acidity draws some mouthwater, combined with strong notes of peaces, leading to a dry tart finish.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of SoLan. Hazy pale golden with a tall and very lively off-white head that works itself out of the bottle. Tart lactic aroma. Light-bodied, astringently tart with a whiff of peach. Overly carbonated. Astringent lactic tartness. 131108

Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Cloudy yellow, brief head. The nose is a strange thing. When people around me drinking the same beer were aroused by the aroma, all I sensed was sweaty feet. It’s definitely very dry and tart. The peach is not overpowering at all, but just sits as a compliment to the citric acidity. It’s certainly not your dull everyday brewpub fruit ale, it is more refined than that. It works a sa thirst quencher on a hot day, but I cannot say I really like it.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy orange with a diminished white head. Citric and mild peachy aroma. Citric and acidic with a solid fruity peachy accent, although quite dominated by a intense citric base flavour. Smooth finish with a bit of more smooth peachy finish appearing.

Bottled. Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is really peachy. Flavour is peaches, some hops and a bit of grass. A rather exprimental brew from DFH, but sadly I didn’t like this very much.

Bottle. Hazy yellow coloured with a huge but fast disappearing white head. Fruity aroma of spices, yeast and peaches. Fruity flavour of peaches, lactic acid and spices with acidic notes. Tart finish.

Very pale yellow. Big bubbles for a craft brew. Aroma of peach yoghurt. Flavour is mild and tart, with a prominent but not overbearing peachiness. Finish is sweet & sour. A simple, refreshing brew that disappears very quickly - so quickly I barely got any notes on the paper.
