R.J. Rockers Son of a Peach Wheat Ale

Brewed by R.J. Rockers Brewing Co.
Style: Fruit Beer
Spartanburg, South Carolina USA

Enjoyed from a 12oz bottle in a pub glass. The beer pours a darkish yellow, with a slight white head that quickly disappears. The nose throws strong scents of peach, along with a slight indication of esters given by the American Hefeweizen yeast. The palate is complex but refreshing, at first simply showing peach, and then moving to some ginger, cinnamin, wheat malt, and just a bit of banana at the end. One of the better fruit beers I’ve sampled as of late.

Bottle. Hazy peach colored pour with a fizzy white head. Aroma is strong peach and wheat notes. Kind of smells like Peaches And Cream Oatmeal. Taste fades the peach out a bit and brings a fuller wheat flavor to it. Light bitterness, some malt, and bready/doughy notes. Body is light and very bubbly. Ends with more peaches, big wheat/grains, more bread and soft malt. Tasty summer beer.

Pours cloudy yellow with white head. Strong peach aroma/flavor throughout. Very good brew. It has a nice wheat flavor with hints of peach. Great for summer drinking. Very smooth

Bottle pours golden. Sours smell. Infected taste, or atleast I hope. Fake peach flavor. Man, I hope this was an off bottle. WIll have to try again.

12oz bottle. Pours cloudy golden in color with white head. Aroma sweet peaches, peaches and peacher. Taste wheat, mild peaches and dry with dry finish.

12 ounce bottle from Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville, VA. Pours a very hazy orange apricot color with a thin head. Fair head retention and lacing. Aroma is sweet peaches and cream with a bit of breadiness. Tart peaches in the taste with bread and spice. The peach taste seems fairly authentic and fresh. Very strong carbonation and light bodied.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Gilly’s, 5/29/09
Is this a newer one? Only 11 raters before me, and I got it in MD...

Aroma: Dominated by peach, a little wheat, sugary, more like a peach candy or peach gum then actual peach...
Appearance: Cloudy yellow gold, nice inch or 2 of fluffy white head
Flavor: Peach is still dominant, but more subtle then in the nose, nice sweet wheat beer flavor, I found it to be surprisingly good
Palate: Super easy to drink, certainly feel more like 4% beer then a 5.8% beer, fizzy too
Overall Impression: Look, its super fruity and light, but that was the point! If you don’t want a fruit beer you picked up the wrong bottle, but hey, you should’ve figured that out from the label. It’s not an Impy Stout there fella...I’m not a big fruit beer guy by any means, I rarely like them, and find most to be too sweet. After the nose, I thought this one was going to be too sweet for me too, but then I drank it, and found out they did a good job with this one, I really did enjoy it, and I ain’t gonna apologize for that!
