Poured a lightly hazy, pale golden color with a small white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of fresh peach, citrus, and a barnyardy quality. Taste of peach, tart, citrus fruits, hay, and a long, dry, sour finish.

Hazy yellow color with a very thin head. Aroma of peach skins and a little marshmallow. Mallow continues to taste. Light tart malt and a bit of lemon. Can’t pick up much wheat. Enjoyable.

Rating 1900. Tap at EBF, then from a growler. Pours a nice light yellowish peach, hazy with some peach skin floaties, and a thin diminishing spritzy head. Aroma is peach, tart, lactic, bacteria, and hints of sour lemon. Great sour flavor, just tart enough to be quenching but not mouthpuckering, more peach flavor, and a lactic tart finish. Good body for a light beer and goes down smooth. Excellent palate cleanser when drinking big beers all day.

(12 oz bottle) Purchased from Brewery Creek in Vancouver. Pours fairly headless with a cloudy golden body. Subtle nose of mild corn, somewhat like a pale lager - which is why it was such a shock to let the initial taste take hold. Wow... was that sour. Very lemony with little else. Very refreshing but strangely doesn’t fit the category. Okay. 5/3/5/2/10

Bottle poured a cloudy yellow with a minimal lingering white head. Aromas of wheat, citrus, yeast and a light hint of peach. Palate was light bodied crisp and tart. Flavors of wheat, yeast and lemon with a crisp lingering tart finish. Wheres the Peach?

Bottle purchased at Liquor Max in Loveland, CO. Pours clear yellow with a spare, fizzy, white head, diminishing, spare lacing. Aroma is average malt (grain, meal), average hops (flowers, citrus), average yeast (sweat) with notes of peaches. Light bodied, sticky texture, soft carbonation and a bitter finish. Average duration, light sweetness, moderate acidity and bitterness, notes of vinegar.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy pale yellow, very bubbly, with a small diminishing white head. Mild aroma is sugary sweet along with grain, yeast, peach and a hint of tartness. Slightly watery, lighty tart flavour of yeast, peach, mild hops and a hint of spices -- meh. Average bodied. Decent but I found it somewhat dull -- there’s much better versions of the style.

Draft @ Hop Devil. Cloudy gold/orange with no head to speak of. Nice mix of tart and sweet makes it easy drinking for the average gueuze drinker. For me they could have gone a bit bolder with the tartness. I like the flavor of the peaches thouh, as they add a nice freshness to this. Nicely done.
