Aroma and Appearance
First, let’s talk about this brew’s incredible aroma. This delightfully dank, footy peach character will keep you coming back for more, and believe me, it’s more than just a fermented drink. When you take your first whiff, there’s this scent that makes you feel like you’re biting into a fresh, ripe peach plucked right from the tree — you can practically smell the fuzz. It is as fascinating as it is refreshing, a rare quality in contemporary brewing. On top of the aroma, the marvelous appearance adds to the magical experience. Without a doubt, this sour drink scores high with its tantalizing color and texture, creating an inviting and irresistible aesthetic.
Flavor and Mouthfeel
Next comes the flavor, which I can only describe as mouthwateringly good. At first, it comes across as puckeringly sour—until your palate fatigues and you begin to taste the lingering fruit and sweetness on the finish. It captures the perfect essence of apricot and peach, offering a musty peach character that gives an impression of mixed fermentation. Alongside this, there are hints of pepper and earthy notes adding to the complexity. The mouthfeel is so good it’s tantalizing, the kind that tickles and invites the tip of your tongue for another sip. What’s more, this brew offers a luscious experience, thanks to the thickness and body from the fruit, a feeling that certainly isn’t as sweet as expected but serenely satisfying.
What Our Editors Thought
Even our editors loved it – hailing the “outrageously strong stone-fruit in the nose” and the luscious experience brought on by the thickness and body of the fruit. According to them, the sip isn’t as sweet as expected, but the whole experience is definitely worth the adventure.

Hly-picked apricot from a summer orchard. It’s a combination of refreshing and tangy that immediately catches your interest. As for its appearance, this beer pours out into the glass a hazy, golden yellow color that looks as delicious as it tastes.
