ah, i am imagining this one in a glass in front of me, and that sour smell coming out of the glass, man i can’t wait till summer and this one comes out again. the aroma is very tart, pours cloudy yellow. the flavor is exactly what you want from a Berliner Weisse, sour and tart kind of like lemon juice, with this there is a slight peach flavor. i could drink these all day.

I thought I didn’t like this beer when it first entered my mouth because I was surprised by how sour it was. But now this is my standard summer brew, it might be the most refreshing drink I know.

Very unusual, but a perfect beer for a summer day or with a light meal. Citrus flavors abound, and obviously quite a lot of peach. Also, hints of tarragon and vinegar. Love it or hate it... I love it.

Pours a pale yellow with a thin white head that hangs around for a while. Smells of citrus. Tastes of bitter citrus with a slight finish of the sour peach. Palate is thin, crisp, well carbonated Odviously this is a fruit flavored beer you could drink all night and it’s low alcohol.

Bottle, fully chilled. Pours with very little carbonation, poured vigorously and had a hard time creating any froth at all. Smells chalky and acidic- both lactic and ascorbic. Tastes of medium acidity- of course I am used to geuze so this may seem puckering to some people- very attenuated body, thin, lemon zesty, lightly bready. Very quenching and delicious. Closely follows the Berliner Weisse style.The peach is subdued, which is nice in this beer to keep it background- finesses the overall flavor. I like lambics though and having a fully fruited lambic style version of this would be nice too- but only if staying far away from the cloying sweetness that some lambics have. Very nice job for an american brewery- I just wish there were a place on this continent with naturally occurring yeast and bacteria like in the senne valley so that we could create even more dynamic lambics and sours here.

Pours with a golden hue with a fluffy white head that is mostly diminishing. Aroma is very yeasty, spicy, lots of citrus, and has a lot of pineapple in the nose. Flavor is watery in the beginning, with a sour, tart, peach, and citrus ending. Medium mouthfeel with lively carbonation. A suprisingly good brew!

I liked this. Poured hazy yellow with a thick fizzy white head. Aroma of peaches. Tart peach flavor. Some lemon but more peach. Refreshing.
