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.

On draft, consumed 11/19/07. Cloudy, light yellow color typical of this style, although the damned lemon wedge was not. Aroma is lemony citrus - can’t tell how much was the beer and how much was the lemon wedge. Flavor likewise lemony with yeasty, spicy clove flavors and hints of grass. Clean finish.

A fabulous beer all around in an under-rated style. Wheats get little respect from many in here, but this is one that should be savored. Pours a beautiful hazy yellow with a small white head. Consumed sans fruit. Aroma is strong citrus and floral notes - some lemon, perhaps some rose or vanilla as well. Flavor is a wonderful blend of sweet malt and just a touch of bitterness to balance out the brew. Yeasty esters are prevalent in aroma and flavors. I’m a big Allagash fan. This is one reason why.

cloudy white/yellow pour with a small frothy white head. aroma of banana, vanilla, and some lemon. nice grainy, banana, lemon flavor. light-med bodied. sharp carbonation. good plain solid example.

Pours cloudy yellow/golden with a small fizzy white head. Semi-sweet candied lemon zest aromas, with an overall grassy note. Flavor is of watery lemon grass and doughy yeast, but little else. Palate is light, slightly tart, and watery. Not bad, but as I said, watery and very one-dimensional.

Mmmmmmmm......tasty. This beer has a very light finish and a great fruity body. I like it best in the huge bottle!

12 oz. bottle. Pours a cloudy, light yellow. Fluffy, medium sized white head sticks to the side of the glass. Slight aroma of bananas and clove. Body is a bit lemony with pepper thrown in for good measure. Finish is very dry.

After a string of overly banana-and-coriander flavored Wits and Hefes, this was refreshing. Crisp, with some fruit flavor, but not overwhelming.

From Great Lost Bear in Portland, Maine. Served with a lemon (not appropriate in our opinion). Poured a cloudy straw golden color with tints of slight copper. big bustling white head. Nose of Belgian yeast but not as clove or banana-esque as many whites. Light sweet and tart mouth feel. Soapy and thin. Not as spicy as one might hope for in a white or witbier.
