This beer has a rich and complex malt flavor balance with a bit of spicy noble hops. The peach is very subtle but noticeable, with a dry finish from the champagne yeast in the 2nd fermentation in the French Chardonnay barrels.

Release 2 ABV: 10.8 Nose is babyfood, candi, pineapple, and apple. Clear yellow, thick head. Peach and pineapple flavor. Alcohol is quite evident. Lighter and hotter than the non-peached Brainless, after being sampled together. Not overly done with the peaches, they are fine. The base beer gives me pause because it is bland, yet volatile. Neither Brainless wows me, but although this one is quite different from the other one, it’s of near equal quality.

22oz bottle (Release #1 10.5% ABV) from Epic
Appearance: Slightly hazy yellow with a medium sized white head, some lacing
Aroma: Peaches, slightly tart fruits, sweet malts and spices
Taste: Good carbonation and smooth mouthfeel. Sweet malts, oak, peaches, finished slightly bitter and dry
The wine barrels really shine in the finish of this beer. Crisp, clean and refreshing, very nice. The alcohols are very well hidden.
