I've officially gone snowinsane. I miss leaves on trees. At least I have good tasting beer.

bottle, old rating - Amber pour, it smells peachy of course. It tastes lightly sweet with apparent if not strong peach flavor, grainy malt, maybe some wheat, and some spice. Light bodied. Nothing to get excited about, but it's okay.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured an orange-caramel color with a large foamy orange-tan head that lingered and left decent lacing. The aroma was sweetish with sour caramel, a bit of toasty malt, a hint of peach and a vague off note. The flavor was sour carmel, vegetal malts, a bit of peach and toffee and again a vague off note. Medium length finish. Medium body. Disappointing.

Smell is mild sterile metal. Looks like orangish clear iced tea. Initial taste impressions are bubbly and refreshing followed by an impact of peach, not sure if its artificial but its not over the top. Yes, good cutting carbonation with a sizzle on the swallow. Near the end of the bottle, perhaps a little too much sweet perfumy fruit in this for my liking but it is a refreshing drink none the less. One good bottle of this is all I’ll need.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, best before 6/13/2016. Pours crystal clear deep ruby red/light brown color with a 2 finger fairly dense light khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the head. Aromas of juicy peach, apricot, pear, orange citrus, coriander, light clove, caramel, brown sugar, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness, herbal, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of peach fruit, spice, dark/bready malt, and light yeast notes; with solid strength. Taste of juicy peach, apricot, pear, orange citrus, coriander, light clove, caramel, brown sugar, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness, herbal, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Light herbal/spice bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of peach, apricot, pear, orange citrus, coriander, light clove, caramel, brown sugar, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness, herbal, and yeast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice complexity, robustness, and balance of peach fruit, spice, dark/bready malt, and light yeast flavors; with a good malt/bitter/spiciness balance and zero cloying sweetness after the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready, and slightly sticky mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a good fruit/spiced brown ale style. All around good complexity, robustness, and balance of peach fruit, spice, dark/bready malt, and light yeast flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink. It is labeled as a Belgian brown, but tastes like regular brown ale; hints of yeast character are in the background. A nicely enjoyable offering.

12 oz bottle from Shop Rite - Hoboken, 3/2/16. Heavy peachy aroma, I don't get much of the coriander, maybe a hint if I'm really looking for it, but really the peach is pretty much all I get. Clear reddish-orange, with no head or lace. Tastes of peach and sugar, with some mild spice notes. Sticky feel, slightly overly carbonation. Not bad, I like peach candy and all. I'm a Son of a Peach apologist for sure, and I'd guess that's what they were trying to imitate here. Bit too sticky and sweet. Bit too much carbonation. It's not a bad effort, but if I'm looking for this beer I'll just drink RJ Rockers slightly better version.

From a supermarket six pack. Poured an actually okay orange color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was like those gummy peach rings, might be artificial, but it was fine. The flavor is sad and makes me sad. Artificial, metallic. Strange off flavors. Would not drink again.

Some bodega: this beer tastes like iced tea or 211 blkberry. This does not taste like beer. It is not very good.
