Allagash Grand Cru

dark reddish brown appearance, with solid white head. flavor initially has somemalt character with a slight hop finish with a little bit of depth. a rather strange after taste that isn’t noticed until a few sips. a good beer but the aftertaste is unpleasant and distracting

Murky orange color with no head. Moderate coriander aroma with a little of the autumn spices (cinnamon, allspice). Those fade in the flavor, but coriander stays and gains some orange and sweet malt.

Hazy golden color with fluffy white head. Aroma of apple, pumpkin and spices. Full body crisp tangy palate. Taste of apple and pices with a dry slightly sour finish.

I find this Belgian ale a very good example. The spices enhance the aromas of this pale brown beer. It has hints of corriander and orange on the mid palate. The moutfeel is nice and arm. Nice beer!

Aroma has sweet malt and light fruit. Flavor has some alcohol, light fruit, salt, and lightly sweet malt. Light brown, cloudy appearance. A surprisingly light and simple beer for their ground cru, but good enough.

Bland nose on this cloudy amber pour. Off white-head Wheat and yeast in the body.

Very good. Allagash brings it again. If you like the other wheaty Allagash brews, this won’t disapoint.

750mL, Batch #15. Pours a hazy honey caramel with a two and a half finger light yellowish frothy head. Aroma of Belgian yeast, pears, apples, toffee, light leather and spice. Flavor adds a bit of earth and alcohol, and though it is sweet, not near as sweet as I was expecting from the aroma. There are also some biscuits. Citrus hops (like in the Houblon Chouffe Dobbelen) are present in the dry finish. Medium body with fairly high carbonation.
