Notes:
In Festina Peche, 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!

look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4
July 2012, bottle dated 2012. Should be fresh.
A: Pours a nice hazy golden straw color with a decent head. Light retention and lacing.
S: Very light smell. Malt and some tart peachy notes. Nothing too impressive here, but that may to be expected given the overall lightness of the beer.
T: Follows the nose. A very nice tartness both in front and on the back end. A bit of peachy sweetness offsets the tartness nicely. Less peachy than I expected, which is welcomed, as I was expecting too much sweetness or a 'fake' peach taste. As another review mentioned, a little bit of "white grape juice" flavor. Kind of reminds me of a much better version of the sparkling white grape juice I used to get on NYE as a young child. Very nice tasting beer. Very little aftertaste, but a sweet-tart mix that makes you want to take another drink. Hard to believe there is ANY alcohol to this.
M: Light and highly carbonated, but with just enough body to let you know you're not drinking an american light beer. I enjoy this, especially as a summer beer - perfect for me.
O: A very good beer, and one I'll most definitely seek out again. Given low ABV, light tart taste and nice mouth feel, I could easily see buying a 4 pack of these for a long hot summer afternoon session. My first DFH experience, and a very good one.
