A refreshing neo-Berliner Weisse, Festina Pêche is back and available in 6-packs this summer, as well as our Summer Variety Pack

Sadly, there are only a few breweries left in Berlin still brewing the Berliner Weisse style, which is characterized by its intense tartness (some say sour). There were once over 70 breweries in Berlin alone making this beer!

In addition to fermentation with an ale yeast, Berliner Weisse is traditionally fermented with lactic cultures to produce its acidic (or green apple-like) character. Served as an apertif or summertime quencher, Festina is delicately hopped and has a pale straw color. To soften the intense sourness, Berliner Weisse is traditionally served with a dash of essence of woodruff or raspberry syrup.

In Festina Pêche, since the natural peach sugars are eaten by the yeast, the fruit complexity is woven into both the aroma and the taste of the beer so there is no need to doctor it with woodruff or raspberry syrup. Just open and enjoy!

As the second beer in our 2025 Season-Ales series (previously known as our Art-Series), Festina Pêche is sporting some incredible artwork by our pal Drew Millward! Drew likes to draw ‘the old-fashioned way’, using pencils, pens and has a love of the craft of illustration. He has exhibited throughout the US, UK, Europe and beyond, as well as having the pleasure of creating work for an ever-growing international client base, and his dope work will be featured on all four beers in our 2025 Season-Ales series.
