Bottle at a tasting. Peach comes across mostly in the taste, and far more than I expected. It is there as a core flavour, very peach-like too. Otherwise crisp fruity hops flavours. Easy drinking, very good.

A light yellow beer, a head is medium and white. Aroma has peaches and grapefruits, some fructose. Taste has peaches, grapefruits, some bitterness that's slightly harsh. Quite light bodied. The fruitness is succesfully but otherwise not so good as it could be.

Cask @ Salopian Bar. Pours clear gold, small white head. Vibrant peachy aroma. Taste brings prominent peach melba yoghurt. Quite fruity and moderately sweet. Quite partial to a peach or two so quite liked this.
