Dogfish Head Festina Peche

Brewed by Dogfish Head Brewery
Style: Berliner Weisse
Milton, Delaware USA

From a 12 oz bottle this poured a clear rich gold with a small white head that had short duration . The nose is peach and citrus. The body is light and the mouthfeel is fairly lively yet smooth. The flavor is on the tart side with peach, citrus, and some fruit like green grapes, The finish is dry and tart Interesting and enjoyable brew.

White/yellow hazy color. Feather white head. Horse blanket nose, bit of Bret. Super tart acidic bite followed by a bit of sweetness then finishes clean. Palate is quite light.

Acidic and a bit tart which is partially rounded out by the peaches. Does not look or smell special. Their comparison to pinot grigio is pretty close. Dry, champagne like feel / aftertaste. An odd brew but worth a taste. My first Berliner Weisse, quite different than a sour. Still on the fence about this one. Kudos to dogfish head for brewing up such a rare style.

Pours extremely pale yellow and watery looking, not outside of style though. The aroma is nice with wheat, yogurt, and peaches. A little funky. The flavor is somewhat sour and watery with, obviously, peaches. Its very frothy in the mouth. Finishes dry and bready. Tastes kind of like one of those vitamin waters, decent yeast character though.

35cl bott@strasbourg 1.4€ 4,5% No head. Pale pale yellow. Brett lemon aroma. Brett lemon taste, medicinal. Terrible, not thought through at all. No body. Nonsense.

Appearance is a highly carbonated slightly darker Mt Dew. Scent is of canned mandarin oranges, slightly off putting. Taste is actually really good, sour lemon, peach, bready finish. Mouth is highly carbonated and rather thin, and extremely dry on the finish. Overall quite a good beer.

12 oz. bottle from The Party Source. Pours a cloudy pale yellow gold color with a small white head that doesn’t last long. There isn’t much to the aroma, some peach, lemon citrus, skunk, and champagne. Nice tart flavor, with peach, lemon citrus, green grapes, lemon juice, and just a little straw and wheat for body. The body is still very light, with a tart, sweet, dry, and acidic mouthfeel. This is my first Berliner Weisse, an interesting introduction to the style.

Sweet peaches, lemons and tart wheat in the nose. Opaque yellow gold body is topped by a shy white head that recedes to a partial cover. Very tart and dry flavour up front with some citrus notes and lingering fruity sweetness in the finish. Dry medium body with very strong carbonation that prickles the tongue. Tulip glass. Cellar temperature. Bottle purchased at Brewery Creek in Jul-09.
