Spring Beer: "Teach's Peaches" Peach Wheat

 

What Makes This Beer Special?

This light-bodied brew, with a delightful malt character, is a refreshing twist on a classic. We've infused it with a whopping 80 lbs of peach and apricot puree, giving it a burst of fruity flavor that's simply irresistible. But what truly sets this beer apart is its uniquely tangy finish—a subtle tartness that adds a playful kick to every sip. Trust us, it's a taste experience that simply can't be replicated.

 

Pairs Perfectly With?

Pair this peach wheat beer with BBQ burgers, fresh shrimp, and tangy salad for a perfect summer meal. Opt for savory-sweet toppings on the burgers to harmonize with the beer's profile. Grilled shrimp with citrus or herbs match the beer's refreshing quality. Add pomegranate, blueberries, and goat cheese to your salad so the fruity notes can complement the rich BBQ flavors. The creamy goat cheese will balance the beer's effervescence in the salad, while pomegranate and blueberries add freshness and sweetness to the pairing.
