Quick Facts: ABV: 4.5%  |  Origin: Lake Zurich, Illinois, USA  |  Style: Fruited Wheat Beer  |  Brewery: Phase Three Brewing Company

Production & Heritage

Phase Three Brewing Company operates out of Lake Zurich, Illinois, a suburb northwest of Chicago. The brewery built its reputation on heavily fruited sours and hazy IPAs before expanding into lighter-bodied wheat beer territory with the Raw series. Raw: Passion Fruit // Peach uses a wheat beer base as its canvas, incorporating passion fruit and peach additions to deliver a fruit-driven profile at a sessionable 4.5% ABV — a deliberate departure from the higher-gravity releases Phase Three is often known for.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Ripe peach and tropical passion fruit dominate the nose immediately on the pour. A soft, bready wheat undertone sits beneath the fruit, lending a subtle grain backdrop.

Taste: The palate opens with bright, juicy passion fruit that transitions into softer peach sweetness at mid-palate. The wheat base provides a pillowy body without excessive sweetness, keeping the fruit flavors integrated rather than syrupy. A light citrus edge, suggestive of orange peel, appears toward the back end.

Finish: Short and clean, with lingering tropical fruit and a gentle tartness that encourages another sip. The low bitterness and restrained carbonation leave the finish smooth and refreshing.

How to Drink Raw Passion Peach

Serve cold, ideally between 38–42°F, in a tulip glass or straight from the can. The low ABV and fruit-forward character make it a natural warm-weather pour. A Passion Peach Shandy works well by combining the beer with fresh lemonade for an extended summer drink. It also serves as a lighter base in a Beer Mimosa, replacing heavier wheat beers with its tropical fruit brightness. For a simple twist, try a Michelada variation — the peach and passion fruit add an unexpected but complementary layer alongside lime and hot sauce.

Best For

• Backyard cookouts and warm-weather gatherings where sessionability matters
• Introducing craft beer drinkers to fruited wheat styles
• Pairing alongside brunch spreads as a lower-ABV alternative to mimosas
• Stocking a fridge for a weekend with a range of easy-drinking options

Why Raw Passion Peach?

Phase Three has earned a dedicated following in the Midwest craft scene through highly rated hazy IPAs and fruited sours, and the Raw series represents their lighter, more sessionable side. Raw: Passion Fruit // Peach stands out within that series for its tropical-meets-stone-fruit combination, a pairing that creates more complexity than single-fruit wheat beers typically achieve. At 4.5% ABV, it fills a genuine gap for drinkers who want full fruit flavor without the higher alcohol content of Phase Three's marquee releases. The 6-pack format reinforces its role as an everyday beer rather than a cellar curiosity.
