Bigger Peach
Tree House Brewing Company

 

Traditional Tree House looks and feel. Taste is too bubble-gummy for me.....but it's still a Tree House!

 

 

 

Enjoyed for bday present, 12/24/22

 

 

 

 

 

16oz can dated 7/13/22.

Pours cloudy gold with an inch of white fluff. Retention is persistent with plenty of tattered lacework. Big peach juice in the nose. Medium bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Juicy hops with peach puree on the palate. Finishes a bit sweet with lingering tropicals and peach slices.

 

 

This was one of those beers you'd either love or hate, as the greatest expression of stone fruit, or a complete gimmick.

Thankfully, I felt into the former category.

Indeed, this was full of peach but thankfully, wasn't completely one-dimensional as there was plenty to enjoy here besides it's hallmark fruit. If anyone could keep this from being a cliche, it would be Tree House as I found this to be boisterous, delightful, and completely flavorful!

Sure, it poured like hazy peaces with a ton of frothy head on top of the liquid. The lacing left behind was layered, as each soapy ring wasn't level while being well-defined and bleeding down to the one below. Peaches, cream, dank hops, and floral citrus were in the nose as the taste exploded with stone fruit that had a bit of apricot, nectarines, and white grape underneath that. Dank and strong, there was a ton to enjoy here as it felt like something freshly picked crossed with a creamy dessert, crossed with an IPA from one of my favorite breweries. Full in body as this had just enough carbonation to feel too heavy, although I wish there were a few more bubbles here to keep this light.

The amount of alcohol was quite potent, although it wasn't a deterrent as I thought that it was on par with this brew's overall heft. Plenty of overripe fruit flesh in the back with hints of Mosaic in the back as this felt like a milkshake - down to the rocky head that easily stuck around longer than the liquid did. I'm usually not a fan of these types of beer but dang, who couldn't smile after having this? Dated 3/24 on the bottom of the can with "I LOVE BIG PEACHES AND I CANNOT LIE!" written above it, get this if you love Tree House and want something fun for a nightcap!

Yeah, I hate this stuff. Tastes like a fuzzy navel. If you're in the demographic that thinks fuzzy navels are a great party drink then you'll probably love this 16 oz. Version of one. Treehouse makes awesome beers. I'm just not sure this is beer. I'm sorry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

L - the biggest of peaches. Pours a dull shade of yellow with a faint glow about it. Thick and muddy-looking. I suspect their might be hops in this beer. White head that lasts just long enough to note that it's white.

S - such a huge dose of peach that you can smell the peach puree from here. Ripe as all hell to the point where it smells of sugary peach candy. There's a heaping helping of mango and zesty clementine as well. Smells like my orange juice right before it goes in the mimosa. That's the only time anybody drinks OJ, right?

T - wowee, keeping up with tradition when it comes to these TH hop/flavor bombs, this one blows me back into my seat a bit. The sheer amount of peach brings tears to my eyes and makes me question the "peach" beers I've had up until now. Oaty OJ and vanilla bring to light both tangy and sweet flavors. Peach rings and grape candy. Strong melon presence. Finishes hoppy and mildly dry as the peach syrup oozes messily all over the place.

F - light on its feet with lively carbonation. Medium fullness (for Tree House) that keeps it drinkable and boy that's a dangerous because this thing is positively delicious.

O - honestly doesn't really feel like a Haze variant. Haze is more balanced and subtle in its peach, which also tends toward a more natural flavor, whereas this is straight peach candy. I'd be lying if I called this beer. I love peach and I love this "beer". Loses a few points because it's so shameless!

Moderate depth and retention to the head, not especially thick, lacing tends to be wispy. Standard apricot juice looking liquid but it's densely translucent more than opaque. The nose features a huge peach presence, met in large part by an equally formidable tarry herbaceousness, then something like vanilla or whipped cream, the two main ingredients don't play nice together. Medium-bodied, good deal of carbonated fluffiness. In spite of the outsized peach presence I'd characterize the mouth feel as dry. Here that peach wins a decisive victory over the dankness. Albeit it does take a puckering turn at the end. Maybe some pine or orange citrus peel in there. Just not a lot to say about it except hope you like peaches. (Canned 12/22/21)

 

 

16oz can at pour. Hazy yellow pour, small frothy white head. Aroma is citrusy with tropical fruit elements, and of course peach. Peach is right up front in the taste, still with fruity flavors in the background. Juicy, soft, full.
