Notes:
The aroma of a sweet juicy peach greets you at the first sip and draws you in for more. This brew was Kettle soured and fermented over 1,700+ pounds of peaches. Not overly sour, but refreshingly tart, the taste of peaches lingers long after the first sip. Find out why Mackinaw peach has us all saying “Love you to peaches!”

Can to tulip.
The appearance was a copper to burnt orange color with no sustaining head. No lace either.
The aroma had sweet and tart peaches bursting forth over some peachy skin/grassy character underneath.
The flavor leaned slightly towards the sweet side of the peaches and brought in a sly tartness as it warmed. Mild aftertaste of sweet peaches and peach skin.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied, perhaps a touch under having a good sessionability about it. Good carbonation. Slight finish of sticky peaches and light grassiness.
Overall, it's a bit sweeter than normal sour ales but I guess it's considered one of those fruited sour ales. It's good, I'd have again.
