Troegs Brewing and Wigle Whiskey Team Up to Bring Peach Whiskey Back

Peach Time… or… Whiskey Time?

Ahh…. peach picking time again! If you are a peach connoisseur or just enjoy demolishing them (like my daughters do), then this is the time of the year for you. (Unfortunately for my daughters it also goes hand in hand with going back to school and the end of the summer days.)

So with the end of the summer, what better way to kick it off with some peach flavored whiskey? As the sun starts setting quicker, and the personal fire pits are un – tarped or opened up, and the logs are thrown on and people start celebrating into the darker hours that are fast encroaching us, why not enjoy some delicious peach whiskey?

And this is exactly why Troegs Independent Craft Brewing has partnered up with Wigle Whiskey Distillery (again) to collaborate and release their Peach Whiskey.

As PennLive puts it:

“The fruit is featured in the newest release from Tröegs Independent Brewing and Wigle Whiskey – the have again teamed up to release Pennsylvania Peach Whiskey.

And, $1 from every bottle will be donated to Feeding Pennsylvania.“

PennLive: Peach Whiskey from Troegs Brewing and Wigle Whiskey is Back

Peach Whiskey

From the Troegs Brewery’s website:

“Pennsylvania Peach starts with Wigle’s made-from-scratch whiskey distilled from regionally grown organic wheat grain. For this ‘twice-barreled’ spirit, Wigle aged the whiskey in new charred oak barrels for four years, then transferred it to barrels that once housed Tröegs Freaky Peach Pennsylvania Sour Ale. After resting for nearly three months, the whiskey was steeped with 220 pounds of dried peaches and apricots. With notes of fresh peach, papaya, dark caramel, and a hint of nutmeg, Pennsylvania Peach is a sweet way to sip through the rest of the summer.”

Troegs Brewing Company and Wigle Whiskey has collaborated in the past to make this peach whiskey last season as well. The product manager for Wigle Whiskey has stated that she enjoys this year’s batch even more than last year’s.

Release and Availability

Pennsylvania Peach will be released out and to the wild on Thursday, August 25th. It will be available in 375mL bottles at 39$ (retail price).

It can be ordered for pick up in Pittsburgh at either Wigle Whiskey location or purchased during a special pop-up event at Tröegs Independent Craft Brewing’s brewery in Hershey (Hershey Park Drive) on Thursday, Sept. 1. No word yet on if this will be available in stores outside of the two collaborator’s businesses.
