SweetWater Brewing Company is the talk of the Southeast’s brewing scene. A veritable media darling, this Georgia brewery tops the list of outlets from Thrillist to Men’s Journal, claiming their place at the forefront of craft beer in the South. 

And there’s nothing that embodies Southern Charm more than a blushing juicy-ripe peach. Brewed with freshly pureed peaches, The Pit & The Pendulum Wild Ale is an 8.3% ABV elixir sparkling with fruit nectar and Brett funk. 

The hazy orange of a mid-summer sunset, Pit & Pendulum’s aroma is full-on stonefruit--apricots, and nectarines with a hint of floral sweetness. The taste is tart, mellowing into delicate flavors of a peach plucked straight from the orchard. Brettanomyces yeast flourishes on fruit skins, and in this ale it mimics the actual taste of dusty peach fuzz. 

Recreating a favorite pastime of biting into your first ripe peach of summer, SweetWater’s mixture of wild yeast, fresh peaches and Georgia terroir make for an elegant summer sipper. Here’s a chance for Sour and Wild Ale fans to experience a brewery coveted by the entire Eastern Seaboard.
