Sampled on draft at 3R6P this beer poured a golden-amber color with a small foamy white head that left good lacing. The aroma was sweetish with peach brandy and a bit of wood. The flavor was peach and wood - a bit jammy but not overly sweet. Long finish. Moderately full bodied but a touch undercarbonated. The peach presence grows as it warms. Tasty.

12 ounce bottle from Beer Run, opened 7/1/14. Pours a clear amber color with a thin fizzy white head that fades quickly. Aroma of candied peaches and wheat. The taste is peaches, wood, wheat, mild hops and bourbon. Thin bodied, harsh, not well balanced. Not a good beer.

bottle - Pours clear gold and smells of, wait for it..... peach and bourbon. It’s actually a really nice aroma. The flavor is sweet with peach up front and bourbon becoming more dominate as it warms. It’s medium bodied and finishes with notes of vanilla. Really good.
