Dogfish Head Festina Peche

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

Had a bottle as an after shift drink. Refreshing, hazy yet vibrant yellow bodied beer. Peachy, some tartness flavored Weisse. I enjoyed this light summertime offering from DFH.

Bottle from City Beer in SF. Sorry Sam, I love DFH beers in general but this wasn’t one of my favorites. Golden color with a fizzy white head. Light, tart aroma with lemon and peach. Flavor fairly sour with lemon, peach, and unripe white grapes. Crisp, dry, and light - true to the style but not the best example I’ve had.

Pours yellow color. Aroma is a bit sour. Flavor is somewhere between a white wine and tart grape juice. mouthfeel is fine, overall i like it. An interesting, refreshing, different type of beer.

Draught @ DFH Rehoboth: This one pours a hazy, straw yellow color. Mine had pretty much no head on it at all. It has an interesting aroma. Sour peaches, some spice, grassiness and maybe a touch of a champagne aroma. You had better like tart offerings if you are going to drink this one. The taste is mainly tart peaches, but not overly puckering. Some spiciness along with it. A very interesting and good beer. It went well with my crabcake sandwich that I had for lunch.

hanks to beastiefan2k for this beer! Cloudy, dark golden blonde in color. No head at all to speak of. The aroma is very mild - filled with a refreshing wheatiness paired with very soft notes of peach essence. The flavor is quite tart. The citrus bursts into your mouth. It is the most dominant character in this beer. It’s a little much for me, actually. It might be better for me if I had a syrup to pour into it! (I know, it’s a shameful thought...syrup in beer...oh well).

Bottle from radiomgb, thanks Jeff. Pours a cloudy straw yellow, with white head. Tart peaches, grain, sweet malt, and a nice sour finish. Very tasty, refreshing, and enjoyable. Wish I had more of these, a great summer brew.

Bottle. Aroma is slightly sweet with a nice hit of peaches. The flavor is pretty mild, a slight surprise from the usual Dogfish Head beers. It is tart, and leaves a pleasant aftertaste. It went pretty well with my watermelon I was eating at the time.

Bottle... Poured yellow with literally no head. Aroma of tropical fruit juice and tart esters. Very carbonated and attacked the palate nicely. Very sweet and fruity flavors and very sour towards the finish and an aftertaste of yeast. I could taste the peach a little, but definitely not over bearing which was good. Would have gotten a lot higher of a rating from me if it had even a tiny bit of a crown.
