(750ml bottle, #165/820, thanks General_Gao) Cloudy amber body topped by medium off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, peach, peach syrup. Taste is sweet, alcohol, peach. Medium-full body. I know I’m in the minority, but I found this too hot.

Bottle thanks to BrianK for sharing. Pours a light orange body. Aroma is peaches and some creamy yogurt. Flavor is strong bozzy peaches and intensely sweet. I couldn’t finish my glass to sweet.

Opened on my 25th birthday. Annoyingly sweet. I give this beer credit for it’s very original concept but this one needs improvement. This beer is alot better the first few sips you take, but as you work your way into the glass it gets worse and worse. Not worth the money. Glad I got to try it though.

750 ml bottle at Briank’s 25th. Pours a deep peach, copper color with a thick lasting head and some lace. Aroma is nice at first, solid peaches and cream - creamsickle, and especially peaches and cream yogurt- then gets a bit dusty, too sweet and a bit wierd. Flavor starts out the same with the first couple sips- all nice and exciting, but it gets real old and tiring, to me not wanting anymore. Lots of fresh peach flavor, some thick syrupy sweetness, artificial sweeteners, aspertame-like, with more skin astrinengy, tannins, alcohol comes throuhg as it warms which gets annoying, and a wierd slighly harsh finish. I wasnt crazy about this one and for $20+ definitely not worth seeking out.

Clear amber color, white head with decent retention and lacing. Smell of peaches, orange, and earthy hops. Peaches at the front, with hops coming in later on in the taste; maybe a little honey and vanilla too. finish is slightly tart with a bit of mango. Medium carbonation and body.
