Peach Tea Mild is an English style Mild brewed with Earl Grey tea and peach. Bright, clear and copper colored, Peach Tea Mild pours with a light tan head and abundant aromas of peach, biscuit, tea, and caramel. Medium-bodied and slightly sweet, Peach Tea Mild tastes like washing a peach biscuit sandwich down with a glass of cool iced tea. Peach Tea Mild is easy drinking and finishes fairly dry.

Bottle. Amber body, hazy with clumped sediment, thin clumping cream head. Light, biscuity nose with peach. Body tangy, biscuity, with metallic/penny notes, initially a thin, tart bite, then light biscuit/cracker followed by a lingering thin, tangy/peachy, metallic finish. Insubstantial and borderline cloying.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, bottled on 11/9/2017. Pours slightly hazy deep golden amber/light orange color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense off white head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of juicy and lightly tart/tangy peaches, lemon, orange, herbal tea, toasted biscuit, light honey/caramel, floral, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance of peaches, tea, bready malts, and light fruity yeast/earthy hop notes; with good strength. Taste of juicy and lightly tart/tangy peaches, lemon, orange, herbal tea, toasted biscuit, light honey/caramel, floral, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Very minimal herbal/floral/grassy bitterness and fruit tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of peaches, lemon, orange, herbal tea, toasted biscuit, light honey/caramel, floral, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of peaches, tea, bready malts, and light fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; with a solid malt/tart/bitterness balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Fairly clean finishing. Slightly increasing dryness from lingering bitter/tartness. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately bready/grainy, and slightly sticky/tangy mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.3%. Overall this is a delicious pale mild style. All around nice robustness and balance of peaches, tea, bready malts, and light fruity yeast/earthy hop flavors; very smooth, clean, and refreshing to drink with the minimally bitter/drying finish. Very flavorful and never watery for the ABV. Perfectly balanced malts, fruit, and tea; with mild earthy hop/fruity yeast presence. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.
