Dogfish Head Festina Peche

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff

Years ago, Mandy and I went to a Dogfish Head brewpub in the suburbs in Maryland. We got some beer and realllly mediocre food. At one point, we ordered a larger bottle to split, and I think it may have been Festina Peche. At the time, we thought it was absolutely disgusting.

This actually smells pretty good. It doesn't taste repulsive. Its a little tart, and definitely peachy (sort of like a gummy-peachy-o). If you think your beer has been missing a peach candy flavor with some added tartness, this beer is for you.

[Take a sip. Looks absolutely repulsed. Sticks her tongue out in disgust.]

Ithaca Ground Break

Found at a little liquor store that I usually don't go to. Turns out they have a few out of market beers. They had a few from Ithaca (Flower Power, Caskzilla and this) and some Lost Abbey beers too.

It was a few months past its "best by" date but I figured a saison should be okay if it just came out in January or February.

The smell is a little off, but it tastes alright. Not spectacular, not terrible.

Thanks to the Newtster for providing this brew.

Reminds me slightly of Dead Guy Ale. Not bad.

Pretty sweet. Reminiscent of a Red Oak.

It really does taste like raspberries. That's actually a good thing. Its not a hint of raspberries, its a shit ton.

A pretty tasty dessert beer.
