TASTING NOTES:
- APPEARANCE: Deep Orange with a hint of pink and a medium sized dense white head with good retention and lacing
- AROMA: Bold peach up front with subtle lichie and toasted malty notes in the background
- FLAVOUR: A peach punch, with a sweat and spicy malty-ness and very subtle bitter ending
- MOUTHFEEL: Light and refreshing with good carbonation
- OVERALL: A sweet, peachy, refreshing weiss with all the characteristics of a well crafted beer, seems appropriate to celebrate the arrival of spring.
- PAIR WITH: A light salad or fruit tart, or even used as main ingredient in a peach beer jelly, perfect for a light summer desert idea.
