Bottled. Yellow color, a bit yeasty hazy, small white head. Strong sweet peach-wheaty aroma. Crisp, refreshing palate. Semi-sweet, a bit grainy, banana, wheat, some peach. More or less what you can expect from peach wheat.

12oz bottle. Poured a medium and hazy golden color with a larger sized white head. Aromas of peach with some wheat. Tastes of peach with some wheat. This one was all peach, which I don’t particularly care too much for. Thin body.

(Bottle) Pours a cloudy golden orange body with a small white head. Aroma of florals, mustiness, and peaches. Malty flavor with a touch of peach. Chauky mouthfeel. I do not see how this could really appeal enough to anyone to buy again.

Hazy pale golden pour with a thin-lacing wispy white head. Fresh sweet, very peachy fruity aroma. Body starts with a good, semi-sweet fruity peach and wheat flavor but thins some toward the finish. I like the peach character but it could use a better base beer.

Has the look of a wit bier, hazy straw with a fluffy white head. The peaches in the aroma smell like they’re from the bottom of a slowly consumed bushel of fruit, almost burying all the wheat. They’re a lot fresher in the flavor, and this turns into a drinkable warm weather brew. Not a repeater for me, but I can see why others might like it.

Straw color with a taller off white head. Peach candy aromas along with a tart papaya and mango nose. Reminds me of a fruit salsa. Mild backdrop of dough. Sweet and tart flavors. Like some sour candies or like a fuzzy navel. Very dry in the finish. This works in some sense as it does manage to be sweet up front but dries out and doesn’t get sticky in the finish. While not one of my favorite this would do well in certain markets.
