Bottle, bottled on 4/28/08. Aroma of sourish wheat, light peach-ish scent in background. Flavor becomes more intensely fleshy peach, stronger sour/tart notes exhibited as well. At first seemed a little light/watery, but as I went through the glass, became simple more and more deliciously refreshing. Fairly dry, but not to the bone. For a beer that’s not overly complex, still somehow kept growing on me and making me want more and more. Good stuff.

An almost champagne aroma with hints of apple. Very clean golden pour with tight white head and lace that goes quickly. A very wine flavor that is a bit tart but smooth and refreshing. Carbonation is good and mouthfeel is solid. A pretty nice beer in an odd way.

Bottle. Foggy, white pour with medium head. Very light aroma of wheat and peach with a touch of tartness. Upfront sour flavor, followed by some peach, citrus with an acidic bite in the finish.

Pours a light yellow color with minimal head. Flavors of peach and lemon, tastes more of lemon and hint of hops. Kind of disappointed in this actually, especially with it being part of the dogfish head brand.

Bottle courtesy of BMan1113VR. Pours a hazy yellow color with a carbonated white head. Nose is lactic, sour, unbaked bread, and the skin of white peaches. Taste is very tart and sweet with some wheat backbone and more of the white peaches. As a beer this is pleasant but as a berliner weisse it falls short because the crisp and acidic bite is missing.

Bottle from Liquor Max. Shared with ilovedarkbeer. Pours with a hazy yellow body with a frothy white head. Aroma is of wheat, tartness, and very faint peach. Taste is tart and a bit lactic with light, sweet peach. Lively carbonation. Not bad.
