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!

Like a peach gummy ring. Very peachy, as it should be. It's a novelty bit still delicious.

Still a 3.75. The peach flavor definitely leans more toward gummy peach for me, but it’s OK. Welcome, summer (even though it’s chilly today).

If you like sours, this is one to try. Lots of fruity peach notes up front with a bold sour finish. It is rather tart, but is easy to acclimate to. A nice, lighter brew for the hot days of summer.
