Summer Nights
Central Waters Brewing Co.

 

 

 

12oz can. Date stamp on bottom looks to put the canning date in April of 2024.
Cloudy, deep gold colored body. One finger of white head but this quickly moves to islands and a ring. Leaves behind just a few short lacing strings.
Aroma of tangy wheat malt and peaches, plus an earthy tea bit.
Taste is tangy from the wheat malt. Additional flavors of peach, citrus, and black tea. Some fruit and herbal flavors in the aftertaste.
Medium mouthfeel. Clean finish. Good carbonation.
Overall not very sweet but still freshly fruity from the peach and earthy from the tea. Refreshing brew.

 

It's a unfiltered(?) wheat ale with a hint of peach; not certain what the black tea adds but it's in there, I guess...? Pours with medium carbonation of fine off-white foam. Pale, cloudy, almost lemonade yellow. Smell the faint aroma of peaches but it's almost buried under the standard wheat beer aroma. It's ok, kind of thin mouthfeel, not like a straight heffeweizen. It's average to slightly above since I can taste peach but it's a bit weak. 80 out of 100 seems fair. Also, no abv on the can that I could see, thought that was a law?

Really delicious summer beer. Great take on a tea infused beer. Really hits the spot. Black tea mixed with peach and citrus. Central @aters doesn't disappoint often and this is no exception. They nailed this wheat beer - not too weak or strong. Flavors are balanced.

 

delicious and unique wheat beer, done with peach black tea, a great recipe, not over flavored but pretty bold, and definitely refreshing and summery since they kept the sweetness down. really creative stuff on tap at their milwaukee location when we visited, i could have spent all day in there. this is pale rust colored, heady from the tap but unassuming, wheaty looking and unfiltered it seems. the nose is juicy peach, the bitter herbal black tea, and enough pale wheat malt underneath to be obvious and beery still, light citrus in here too to me, major summer vibes, more tea than peach i guess, but both are prevalent. the peach is natural and ripe, only slightly candied in the taste, the tea is there the whole way and seems to help this dry out at the end, nothing really from the yeast, but some nice fluffy wheat texture and dry cereal character from it, like a tea shandy sort of, without any acidity. it has high refreshment value and drinkability, doesnt linger long, and reminds me of being a kid and crushing peach tea. the base wheat beer is of fine quality too, always from these guys, but it stands out that this isnt cheap when a lot of flavored wheat beers are. impressive offering, everyone in our group loved it!
