Commercial Description:
Our interpretation of a traditional Belgian wheat beer, Allagash White delicately balances full flavor with a crisp, refreshing taste and subtle hints of spice. Naturally cloudy, bottled with yeast.

Looks like a standard hefeweizen. Served at Draught House in Austin with a lemon wedge. Smells of lemon... or is that the lemon impaled on the edge of my glass? Semi-cloudy. Taste is also lemony. Thin body - easy to drink on Summer days. Sweet, lifting aftertaste. Grapefruit, maybe? The citrus is strong with this one.

I really enjoyed this beer. The scent has a wonderful citrus and coriander nature. The beer itself is very aesthetically pleasing, with a pale yellow cloud in your glass. In terms of flavor, it is very refreshing and easily drinkable, yet still with an assertive spiciness. The easiest spices to notice are hints of citrus and perhaps some coriander. This is a great beer worth at least one try by fans of Belgian pales.

Thanks to zinister. Nice cloudy, off white color with lots of tasty yeast and wheat floating about. Nose of lemon, tartness, and spices. Very carbonated, fluffy body, very tart and bitter. Light body and a bit alcoholic. One of the better wit beers on the market and what Hoogaarden should aspire to. 3/7//09. Also on tap at the Flying Saucer-even better on tap. Nice beer.

Cloudy yellow with yeasty and fruity nose. Flavor was lemon, citrus and yeast with some grain. Nice balance of fruit and spice, and was glad to have tried on tap.

pours bright yellow with no head to speak of. bubbles nicely. citrus and yeasty flavors, some grassy notes after a few moments on the palatte. a little spice in the background. finishes fairly cleanly, a little hoppier than expected. was ok overall, nothing special.

Bottle from Zinister at his tasting. Thanks!
Pours a cloudy yellow with lively carbonation and a nose of yeasty sweet bread with a touch of raisin. Flavor is sweet bread with a slight plumb finish. Thick and slippery mouthfeel. Nice start to the tasting.

I had this on draught last night, what an awesome taste it had! Pours a bright cloudy golden colour with a large white top, lots of wheat, lemon, citrusy fruit and spice to the aroma. Taste is very pleasent, lively, bubbly and sweet but definately wheaty.

Cold 750ml corked bottle: Pours a hazy lemon yellow color with a moderate sized frothy alabaster head. Aroma is of pale malt, lemon, grass and spice. Taste is of pale malt, subtle grassy hops, lemon and prominent coriander. Crisp yet smooth, with a medium body and fair carbonation. Ending is of lightly sweet malt and elongated coriander notes.
