World-Class
Notes: Aged in French Oak and spiked with peaches and blended, very carefully. First brewed in 2007, and again in 2020 as "Yellow Bus Stop" (same beer though).

Bottle at share, batch 2. Pale straw color looks like white wine a bit, bubbly head. Fruity aroma, grapes, stone fruit and a touch of citrus. Lots of funk here. Taste is sour, white grapes and peaches. Finishes dry.

On-tap at The Church at Lost Abbey, their new location in downtown San Diego. What an incredible beer! Bright, vibrant, super tart, yeast character is on point. Great peach flavor. Fizzy, fresh finish. Wow!

On tap at The Church at Lost Abbey. Bright, sharp, clean, acid, sour, incredibly drinkable. Pours a gorgeous golden yellow, minimal head, peaches more in the nose than on the tongue. Piquant, delicious,could drink it for hours.

Had on tap. Typical peach wild ale appearance with a amber body and a white head that settles into a collar. Aromas of peach, bright oak, and funk in a delicate nose. Taste is much the same, but would has the elevated tannin delivery. Feel is delicate and bright with light sourness and a kiss of minerality, but the is oh so light. Good and artful, but doesn't stand out in a huge way
