Peach Sour

Tap to rate

A base of tart acidity blends seamlessly with the juicy sweetness of peach: tangy, soft, clean yet crisp. This 4.5% fruited sour leans heavily into the sweet nectar of the peach and is the sweeter sister of the Chilli & Lime sour; it was brewed alongside it, so the two can be blended in different ratios.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with ripe peach nectar—juicy and sweet, with a subtle stone-fruit depth. Underneath lies a gentle tartness that prevents any cloying impression, balanced by clean, bright acidity. A delicate citric undertone rounds out the aromatic profile, with no harsh fermentation characters.

◐ Taste

The palate leads with pronounced peach sweetness that immediately intertwines with a snappy, mouth-puckering tartness. Acidity carries through the mid-palate, cutting cleanly without astringency, while the peach character remains the dominant voice. The finish is crisp and refreshing, with minimal residual sweetness, allowing the juicy fruit and tart notes to linger in balance.

◑ Finish

The finish is short to medium, with the peach sweetness fading quickly into a dry, tart aftertaste. A refreshing, lingering acidity frames the close, inviting another sip.
