12 ounce bottle from Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville, VA. Pours a very hazy orange apricot color with a thin head. Fair head retention and lacing. Aroma is sweet peaches and cream with a bit of breadiness. Tart peaches in the taste with bread and spice. The peach taste seems fairly authentic and fresh. Very strong carbonation and light bodied.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Gilly's, 5/29/09
Is this a newer one? Only 11 raters before me, and I got it in MD...
Aroma: Dominated by peach, a little wheat, sugary, more like a peach candy or peach gum then actual peach...
Appearance: Cloudy yellow gold, nice inch or 2 of fluffy white head
Flavor: Peach is still dominant, but more subtle then in the nose, nice sweet wheat beer flavor, I found it to be surprisingly good
Palate: Super easy to drink, certainly feel more like 4% beer then a 5.8% beer, fizzy too
Overall Impression: Look, its super fruity and light, but that was the point! If you don't want a fruit beer you picked up the wrong bottle, but hey, you should've figured that out from the label. It's not an Impy Stout there fella...I'm not a big fruit beer guy by any means, I rarely like them, and find most to be too sweet. After the nose, I thought this one was going to be too sweet for me too, but then I drank it, and found out they did a good job with this one, I really did enjoy it, and I ain't gonna apologize for that!
**Just submitted a photo for this one, as it was missing one.

Pours an orange color with a medium sized white head. Aroma is peaches, wheat, bubblegum. Flavor is malt, wheat, candy peaches. Relatively refreshing, but nothing to call home about here. If you like peaches, you’ll probably enjoy it enough.

Chestnul and light maple syrup aroma. Dingy brown, thin off white head. Nutty with a pronounced bitterness. Coffee notes in the end. Thin mouthfeel. Good tasting, but somewhat disjointed.

Location: Updating this rating with a 12 oz bottle from Bruisin' Ales, 1/4/15
Aroma: The nose has some sweet malts, caramel, and a bit off, with some lingering earth
Appearance: It pours a murky looking orange color with a small beige head and some spotty lace
Flavor: The flavor is sweet and a little off, some boozy notes, and a slightly off finish
Palate: The body is light-medium, rather sticky, with what I don't consider a great mouthfeel
Overall Impression: I gotta lower the score a bit. I just find this one cloying and kind of unpleasant.
2.6: 5/4/5/2/10
Old Rating: 5/13/09
Relatively hoppy, and a decent beer, but overall its just pretty bland, I'll bumped it up a bit because of the generous hops, otherwise it would probably have been slightly lower.

Pours clear brown with an average sized off-white head. Caramel malt aroma. Light sweetness, a bit of hop dryness but no hop flavor or aroma. A bit of carbonic acid bite to the palate, effervescent and light bodied.

Hazy orange/copper color with a tall, creamy off-white head. Fruity malt aroma. Sweet, lightly bittered. Rather simple and one-dimensional.
