Picked up in a mix and match while visiting Myrtle Beach a few months ago. The peach worked well with the wheat ale. Adds some sweet flavor and not too overwhelming. A refreshing summer beer.

Got a bottle at my favorite Tupelo Honey Cafe in Asheville. Cloudy gold, almost orangey, thin cap. Significant sweet peach aroma with a hint of orange. Wit & peach flavor as advertised, but we were pleased to find it not very sweet here. There's a yeast rather than hops bitterness that's very nice. Light, wet, refreshing. This was enjoyed by both the beer nerds & occasional drinkers in the group, and helped raise my estimation of RJ Rockers. It's appropriate that a Spartanburg brewery would get peach right-- Spartanburg county traditionally produces more peaches than Georgia.

pours a murky orange, thin white head with not much as far as retention and has a little bit of lacing. The aroma is fresh peaches with a sweetness of peach and vanilla ice cream. The taste is a disappointment, I wish the flavor came through as much as the aroma. Decent enough peach flavor, not artificial tasting. Balanced by a strong wheat and finishes with a slight hop bitterness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied and carbonation. Ok beer but I was hopping for more!

Received via trade with bluesandbarbq (thank you!). You know when you see a really smokin' hot female somewhere, but you finally see her face and you chalk her up to a "butterface". Well this beer was the equivalent of a "butterface". The aroma was so incredibly enticing, so alluring that when you finally got to taste it, it was a let-down. But the aroma....I could smell it for days. Starts out like some fresh peach juice, or maybe some peach candy. After a bit of warming up, it takes on the aroma 50/50 bar (some call it a dreamcicle...the half orange/half vanilla...oh yeah). Peaches, 50/50 bar...how is this a bad thing? Body looks great..almost hefe-like...a light orange, murky but the head formation is a little weak. The flavor...ugh...it's like someone took a handful of aspirin, crushed it up and dumped it in the bottle. Light peach flavor and an overwhelming astringency that just took over every possible flavor profile. It all came back to the aspirin. A knock-out of a beer if you simply look at it and smell it's enticing scent. Too bad. -

I picked this up from the Wine Gourmet in Roanoke, VA. This beer gets an overall of 3 because the flavor is so bad. The smell was outstanding but the flavor sucked. Tasted like vomit following a slice of peach cobbler washed down with a Busch.

Strong aroma has a very firm overtone of peach - it really does smell like a freshly cut peach, and I love peaches! It has a wheaty hint as well. Pours a hazy, nearly opaque honey golden with a thick and rather persistent palest honey-tan head. Wheaty flavor has a firm and somewhat sweet, but not too sweet, overtone of peach. Got me thinking - is it possible to make peach cider or peach wine? Well, the Japanese make plum wine - pourquoi pas? OK, enough digression. Texture has good body and good fizz, definitely some peach in the finish. If you love peaches, you should love this beer.

A bottle from Blues. I almost lost this when I offered a sip to my wife. She loves fruit beers. Pours an extremely cloudy orange with a light fizzy head. The peach presence was abundant...it dominated the aroma and held its own on the tongue. That said, this is not as sweet as I thought it might be. There is a bit of a sour undertone, and the wheat flavor helps tone down the syrup character rather nicely. A nice beer that I was lucky enough to share with someone. Thanks Lou!

Thanks, Lou! This is Chilton County (Alabama) peaches all the way! An incredible aroma of... Peaches! And nothing says summer around here like peaches. Pours a lazy, hazy summer orange with a slight head - laces well. Light to medium in the mouth - fit a for a warm summer day. Flavor is lightly sweet and peach. Tasty and truly Southern.

When you grow up in the South you learn to love peaches. This one pours a hazy light golden orange with minimal head and decent ringlets of lacing. Big peach aroma right away and dominant, brown sugar, wet wheat, peach syrup. Taste is Peach dominant also, which is fine with me, this is like Georgia or South Carolina in a bottle!, light earthiness with the wee bit of hops, sweet, tasty, Southern. Loved it. Been wanting to try this one and it didn't disappoint.

I think this may have turned, it's a bit scary really. Lots of floating particulate, no real head to speak of. I'm getting peaches in the aroma but the mouthfeel and flavor are rather harsh.
