An English beer with melon and peach. smells almost like a cheap peach hand soap from the local kiosk. The beer can still be drunk.

superflyguy (338) - Leeds, West Yorkshire, ENGLAND - NOV 6, 2011
a strange one this. pours a good straw/amber. aroma and taste have bags and bags of peach. the finish has a bit of bitterness, but overall the flavour is a bit too sweet. don’t think i’d want more than one, but it’s certainly palatable

Tequilakongen (287) - Oslo, NORWAY - OCT 27, 2011
The taste is mostly sweet and the body not at all robust, however it boasts a markedly bitter finish that also leaves a bit of room for the malts. A most distinct aroma of peach, maybe a floral scent as well. A clear dark amber colour and a medium, mostly diminishing, white head, lacing is plentiful. (Bottle)
