Festina Pêche

Sour - Fruited Berliner Weisse

A refreshing neo-Berliner Weisse, Festina Pêche is available during the sweaty months. Sadly, there are only a few breweries left in Berlin still brewing the Berliner Weisse style, which is characterized by its intense tartness (some say sour). There were once over 70 breweries in Berlin alone making this beer! In addition to fermentation with an ale yeast, Berliner Weisse is traditionally fermented with lactic cultures to produce its acidic (or green apple-like) character. Served as an apertif or summertime quencher, Festina is delicately hopped and has a pale straw color. To soften the intense sourness, Berliner Weisse is traditionally served with a dash of essence of woodruff or raspberry syrup. In Festina Pêche, since the natural peach sugars are eaten by the yeast, the fruit complexity is woven into both the aroma and the taste of the beer so there is no need to doctor it with woodruff or raspberry syrup. Just open and enjoy!

Very interesting. Pretty much tastes like a peach cider. Very sweet, but I'm a sucker for peach so I like it haha

Quite lovely. Another beer that would be a splendid ice cold addition to a hot summer day. Tart not cloying, and real not artificial, peach flavor. Perfection in a can.

A mellow but complex sour. The peach is the star of the show but doesn’t overpower. Absolutely delicious.

I’m pretty sure the translation of this beer is “Festive Lady Parts” but it’s been a long time since I had it. (More sour these days?)
