Who I Follow
Festina Pêche - Dogfish Head brewery, 4.5% ABV, (Milton, DE) On the bottle: “Festina pêche is a neo-Berliner style Weisse fermented with peach juice. This unique, tart and refreshing brew is so down with the dog days of summer.” My Notes: My Rating: D+ Why I like it: nah Where I got it: W. 16th (W. Van) How much: <$7 for 12 fl.oz. (360ml), Summer 2010 (bottled in 2009) Do I love this enough to drink it again: Nope Would I recommend this to beer afficianados: Nope Tasting Notes: pours cloudy lighty fleshy peach, minimal head, negligible retention, minimal ringed runny lacing, invisible CO2 streams. Mild Ceres peach juice on the nose. Ultra-tart up front, 7/10 lip-puckering sour mixed with a mellow yellow peach + semi-grapefruit body, and 25% barnyard awfulness, finishes 5/10 sweet and 8/10 tart. Low-medium complexity, low-medium depth, medium-bodied, so-so carry. Halfway through this I can confidently say I that I won’t particularly enjoy finishing it - but I will only out of non-wasting principle.
