355ml bottle poured into tulip 15/8/16

A clear golden yellow with just a couple bubbles here and there with the occasional giant, finger of foams gone quickly leaving a couple random patches

s it is what it claims, canned peaches, sweet grains, a little floral, about what I expected

T mimics the nose bang on, maybe some faint hay

M light bodied, almost watery, a little flat even though I can see bubbles, grainy peach finish

O its a summer swiller that's one of my wife's favorites, its a light fruit beer start to finish

Another basic fruit beer that has a place and time, a hot summer patio, nothing special but I knew what i was getting

A curious beer. The rep for Brewsters products came in and dropped off a bottle of this and a bottle of their Original Lager for me and someone else to try. I'm a lager guy, but I've never had a peach beer so I brought it home. Didn't pour, so I'll just rate it an even three in terms of looks. Smell has some peach to it, but mostly a watery "beer" smell that might put some people off. Taste is not bad, honestly. Peaches are there again, but followed up by some limp, wilty hops that aren't too good. Probably a great summer time beer. Will be looking to try this again despite the flaws. The taste is very intriguing.

355ml bottle, and a different recipe from their original Peach Fruit Hog, according to the manager. So named after the major road adjacent to their primary brewing facility in Calgary, I imagine, but I've now got the Scorpions' 'enjoy the zoo, and walk down 42nd Street' in my head because of the moniker.

This beer pours a clear, pale golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy bone-white head, which leaves some splendid layered ski-run map lace around the glass as it quickly sinks out of sight.

It smells of musty peach and apricot flesh and pith, gritty and grainy wheat malt, a bit of hard water flintiness, and very faint earthy and leafy hop bitters. The taste is bready and lightly doughy wheat malt, a further pale graininess, muddled peach and other fleshy light orchard fruit, a bit of wayward earthy yeast, and some plain and underwhelming leafy and weedy hoppiness.

The carbonation is quite light and innocuous in its barely supportive frothiness, the body a decent medium weight for the style, and mostly smooth, maybe the perceived sensation of getting peach fuzz stuck in my teeth the unsubstantiated cause here. It finishes off-dry, both the generic wheatiness and lingering peach/apricot thing still jostling for position.

I gotta say, this ain't half bad, and while probably intended for the summer patio set, it works as a nice palate cleanser amongst all these big, dark, and boozy brews kicking about right now. Simple, and yet engaging enough to warrant a few more, especially if we were in need of something to help us 'drink the time'.
