Freshly harvested Elberta peaches from Detering Orchard were added to this mixed culture American wild ale. Juicy peach aromas and flavors wash over this tart and light, golden ale. Hints of vanilla and cinnamon from the oak aging give suggestions of warm peach cobbler. Shake Your Tree ends with a sparkling dry finish.

My first Alesong beer. Why? On tap at the Tin Bucket. Pours a cloudy yellow color with a small white head. Oak, wild sour fruit, clear apricot, funky brett, lemons, tart unripe lemons. Quite good, smooth and complex. Balanced with brett and lacto plus the sweetness of the fruit. Lovely.
