New Belgium Lips of Faith (Erics Sour Peach Ale)

Clear gold with o head and no lacing. Aroma is a little weak but there is a nice touch of tart peachy fruit and sugary sweetness. Flavor is tart funky fruit, peaches and apples, not puckeringly sour, and not overly sweet at the same time. A bit vinous with cloying fruit. Not too dry in the finish, slightly syrupy. Overall, not as good as the sum of its parts.

Shared by the Indy crew the morning of the Sexual Chocolate release. Pours a translucent gold with no head. The nose is nice and peachy, mild tartness and sour character, a tad funky, definitely some honey aromas coming through. The flavor shows honey upfront, peach skins, earthy funky character, tart sour character, nice peach flavor. Crisp on the palate. A tasty brew for sure, fun to drink. Not amazing though.

Growler shared @ Andrews. Light in color with a medium body. Aroma of grapes, and other fruit like apricot and lemon besides peaches. Sweet and sour peaches with the tingle of peach skin. Semi sour like a tart candy with some dryness at the end. Really good.

Handbottle shared by ygtbsm94 at Sexual Chocolate Day - thanks, Brad! Bright copper pour with little head and carbonation. Oranges and peach on the nose. Thin bodied. Only slightly sour with notable hints of lemon, peach and melon

Shared by ygtbsm94 at Sexual Chocolate Day - thanks, Brad! Fairly bright amber body with a very mild carbonation. The fact that it was nearly still wasn’t bothersome at all, as it seemed somehow to fit. The nose was very soft, with notes of honey and very mild peach. The body was fairly thin, with a disappointing finish. Only mildly sour, the flavor still had some depth, and it was really more sweet than anything else.

(11/3/08) Draught at Pizza Port in Carlsbad. Hazy orange with a white head. Aroma of brett, peaches and some citric notes. Sour flavor with lots of peaches, light lemony hints and some funk. A good refreshing one.

24 oz handbottled and beer gun filled from a keg courtesy FlacoAlto. Pours a hazy golden color with a very minimal amount of bubbles that fade to a stand still. The aroma shows tart peaches, oranges, sweet citrus, and some creamy lactose. The flavor shows a variety of light fruits to go with the tart peaches including apples and oranges. The lactose is very creamy and blends well with the flavors to balance out the acidity nicely. This one is very smooth and easy drinking with subtle carbonation. I think I waited too long to drink this as it was starting to go flat. I would love to be able to try this fresh from the tap.

Hand bottled in plastic bottle, from Flaco Alto. Amber color. Lemon, peach and a hint of caramel in the aroma. Full bodied, thick mouthfeel. Peaches, lemon, melon, traubenzucker and some flowery hops in this moderately sour, rather complex brew. Some milk in the aftertaste. Loved this one.
