Liefmans de Boomgaard Peche

Formerly brewed at Liefmans (Moortgat)
Style: Fruit Beer
Oudenaarde, Belgium

Bottle pours a slightly hazy light beige, peach color with a nice white egg white looking head that stays. Aroma has plenty of that slightly off, musty hors blanket smell of classic lambics, the flavor on the other hand is a very sweet fruity, peach I guess, almost syrupy character. Some of that tart lambic character is there but over powered byt eh peach soda-pop. Light and lively palate. Still tasty in its own, and easy to slug down. It’s good for what it is.

This poured a golden orange body with little of any head. The aroma is peach (Surprize!),maybe a bit too sweet. The flavor cuts back on the honey sweetness and delivers a fairly fresh fruit taste. Peachy finish and pretty refreshing.

This is certainly better than the Tropicale made by the same brewery. Good peach aroma and flavor. But there are much better peach Lambics to be found in the wonderful world of beer. A bit too sweet, but a fun beer to drink.

The aroma is very light but it has peaches, yeast, and malt. The appearance is deep gold with an average foamy head. The palate is smooth. Overall a good beer.

Weak apple, pear, and peach aroma. Hazy golden pour, no head. Full peach flavor and mouthfeel. Delicious and refreshing.

Bottle, BevMo in La Mesa. Pours a medium amber color. Aroma is like acidic champagne. Syrupy sweetness with a quite a bit of peach going on. A hint of grain is present along with a little bit of tartness. Obviously a little sweet for most, but I like it.

Don’t know why these Boomgaards get no love. They are sweet and delicious. Probably some inconsistency with the style. Who cares. Yum.

Bottle: Golden peach color, white head, mild lacing. Nose is light, not very fruity, stale spice and sweet fruity flavor. A bit sweet and tart but overall a very unfulfilling sweet fruity beer.
