Peach Pale Ale
Lone Tree Brewing Company

 

 

 

I need to have this again but it was pretty solid, felt good, and refreshing but taste-wise I wasn't expecting it to be as subtle. Probably need a couple more times with this.


Peach is subtle and this is drinkable I just don't care for it I suppose

Poured from a can. Golden in color with a large foamy head. Smells of fruit and malt. Flavors of pine and peach, both not super strong. Smooth, good mouth feel. Enjoyable

 

Very nice golden color. Quite clear with lots of streaming carbonation bubbles. Solid two fingers of a slightly off white head that is slowly dissipating and leving sicky streaks of foam on the side of the glass.

Smell is very bright fruity citrus ,peach smell. A faint scent of pine in the background. Just very nice and clean.

Taste is a bit like peach up front and some hop bitterness in the background.

Finish is easy, light and crisp.

This was another recent aquisitionfrom my recent trip to Denver. But I made a mistake and did not check for a date. Lone Tree does a very nice job of clearly labeling the beer on the bottom and this one was canned on Nov. of last year. I really like where this beer was going but think over time, even in a can , it lost some of the dream. I really would love to taste this as fresh as possible now. I really think this beer could be quite amazing. Even out of date it is not bad. Just want to try it fresh now.

 

Bright gold, two finger head moderately lasts. I reviewed this last summer and said It smells of vanilla pudding laced with orange. Today it’s a mild floral smell. fruity taste, not too sweet. Light refreshing mouthfeel.

Poured into a cervoise glass.

Really light honey hue with light cream foam that holds up well, very light isolated spots of lacing. Aroma is light pine, sour citrus, and peach purée. Tastes mostly of light wood, peach purée, and citrus rind, not overly bitter. Mouthfeel is medium bodied. Overall, I like peach beers but not this one.

12 oz. Can

Poured into a Trillium glass a nice clean/clear dark golden yellow/orange color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice thick/creamy one-finger off-white head, which leaves some nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is hoppy, malty, with some citrus complex (orange, tangerine, peach). The taste is hoppy, malty, nice little sweetness, with some citrus complex (orange, tangerine, peach). Medium body, ABV is hidden nicely, with a little dry/bitter finish. Overall, a tasty brew.

 

This is a pretty average pale ale with a little extra hint of peach. Not overly sweet which was nice. Very sessionable. Decent beer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Look: 3.75
Slight hazy hue and a great deal of foam. Head retention is pretty good. Lacing / Outer ring formation continues throughout.

Smell: 3.5
Only slightly fruity, malty, and hops. Not very strong but an acceptable level of aroma.

Taste: 4.25
Hop bitterness right off the bat and very dry. Earthy hop flavor and herbs seem to rush in. Sweet caramel and biscuit then come in with a strong peach tang. Soon after, this brew gets really yeasty and Saison-like before fading out. I was left with an herbal notes, peach, and a slightly smoky wood flavor.

Feel: 4
Medium body. Slightly slick. Decent amount of fizz throughout.

Overall: 4.25
I was skeptical at first, but really liked this one. It is much more flavorful than I expected. It usually takes a lot of peaches to bring out the finished peach flavor because they tend to fade out in brew. This one is just right for the amount of peach. It’s not too much where it tastes like a peach wine, and the base beer is really good so it doesn’t have to rely strictly on the peach flavor for interest. I would buy this one again for sure.
