(Previous labeled Peach Lambic). We first began experimenting with Belgian-style ales in 2006, and fresh, whole peaches were selected as one of the first fruits to add to the sour beer that we had fermented for over eight months in white oak barrels. We use 7,000 pounds of fresh Indiana peaches from Huber’s Orchard and Winery in Starlight, Indiana, destoning the peach pits by hand before adding to the barrels. Peach is a fruited ale with gold and straw colors that shine upon pouring, and zesty amounts of carbonation. Fresh peach aromas meld with floral and wine-like notes. Wonderful peach flavors follow in the taste, accompanied by refreshing tartness with a dry finish and mouth-watering tanginess.

Shared by Skyview, thanks Bob. Lots of peach aroma. Dry peach syrup in the flavor, considerable peach, comparable to Cantillon Fou Foune, but not quite that good, good anyway. Cloudy orange color. Sour.

750 ml corked and capped bottle courtesy of tjthresh. Pour is hazed golden orange yellow, pour is entirely flat with no head. This has not been the case with the other Upland Lambics, hope this one is ok. Aroma of mild vinegar sourness, with nice fresh ripe peach aroma behind that. Taste is the sour acetic vinegar right up front, with only a hint of the peach fruit behind that. This one obviously did not carbonate properly. There is some oak woodiness in here too, though its pretty sharp and disjointed. As it continued to warm, the peach flavors came out nicely. Palate is flat, medium and the after taste was brief. Thanks Tom.

750ml shared with the DC crew thanks to ygtbsm. Big sour, sweet aroma. Murky orange-tan color. Sweet and peachy, no real carbonation. No hop balance or crispness, as to be expected I suppose. Peach juice with extra wheaty sourness. Mild, a tad odd...but I still find it oh-so quaffable.

bottle at Ft Wayne locals tasting courtesy of jsquire - Pours slightly hazy orange-gold. It has a gentle aroma of peaches and some mild brett. The flavor is sweet and peachy with the wild yeast characteristics on the light side. Surprisingly it’s kind of watery and bland and it’s definitely under-carbonated. It’s okay, but I expected much more.

Bottle that was kindly passed on in a trade by the marvellous Miketd when we met in NYC in Nov 08, cheers me old mucker. Peach skins and yeast leap forth from the nose of this beer but there is a definate sour light acidic note as well. The beer poured a muddy orange colour there was no head and it lacked much in carbonation. Taste was just a little disappointing, I really expected something more zappy and sour than it was, as it was it came across as perfectly pleasant but seemed to strike me as the smoothie of the fruit lambic world and just a little too safe. There is plenty of peachy flavours, too much sweetness remains, a likeable beer but one that just needs to be more in your face to be taken really seriously. A7 A4 F6 P3 OV14 3.4

Hazy yellow with tiny white short lasting head. Sourish aroma with notes of peach and wood. Sourish flavour with barnyard, peach and brett notes. Sourish finish.
