Peach Bottom - Porter

Beer style: Peach Milkshake IPA

In addition to the glorious warmth, sunshine and lush nature, one of the highlights of summer is definitely its fruit: In the warm months in the middle of the year, harvest time follows harvest time and we pick strawberries, cherries, raspberries, currants, rhubarb, gooseberries, apricots and peaches The latter are a special delicacy and taste best when eaten straight from the tree When the velvety skin is warm from the sun and the juice runs down our wrist with the very first bite.

The brewers at Bonn-based brewery Ale-Mania are also peach fans The creative craft brewers channel their enthusiasm for the fluffy fruit into what they do best and prefer to make beer instead of jam, cake or compote Their Peach Bottom is a creamy milkshake IPA, that captures the summer with fresh peach notes and the consistency of a fine milkshake The 7.6% brew celebrates the peach in all its nuances and presents us with a visual hint of the stone fruit: The beer flows into the glass in the color of ripe fruit flesh and crowns itself with a small crown of blossom-white foam Aroma and taste then provide the rest: juicy peach meets oven-fresh cookies, grassy and floral hops, citrus fruit and a light-footed bitterness
