Coolship Pêche marries the delicate flavor of farm-fresh peaches with our Coolship beer’s signature notes of tart funk, apricot, and oak. In line with traditional Belgian brewing methods, this beer starts with Pilsner malt, 40% raw wheat, and aged whole-leaf hops. The unfermented wort is then transferred to a large shallow pan called a coolship, which allows the wort to mingle with wild yeast and souring microbiota in the Maine air. The beer then ferments and ages in French oak wine barrels for roughly two years. To finish, we add fresh, Maine-grown peaches and let the barrels rest for another five months before the beer is ready for bottles.

4 oz. draft sample. Aroma is funky peach and oak. Flavor has moderate funky yeast throughout the sip with the oak and soft peach underneath. Wonderful construction!

375ml bottle pours a hazy orange with a ring or two of head.  Nose has the peach, some nail polish, some sour wood, a lot of lacto.  Flavor has candy and peach, sour wood, some apple cider vinegar.  You can feel the body, its bigger than 5%, medium acid.  Below average for the series.  7 3 7 3 12

Bottle from Harvest Market. Pours a lightly hazy deep golden color with a decent sized bone white head that recedes quickly. Lactic earthy spicy funk with pretty solid hit of peachy stone fruit and rind. Pretty nice

Bottle shared in Larchmont - big thanks to drsandman. Pours mostly clear gold with a thin, foamy white head. Solid overall, with strong acidity, tart peach, white pepper, pale woody dryness. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Quenching finish, somewhat sharp, with more sturdy tart peach. Good one.
