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.

750 ml Bottle - Pours cloudy/hazy yellowish-white, smells citrusy, somewhat spicy, tastes very citrusy - almost lemony - carbonation is perfect given that most Witbiers (in my opinion) have too little. Head formed nicely, but dissipated quickly. Drank it with a beer-battered brat - complemented it very well and was nice in the heat. Good brew.

A very pleasing spicy aroma with strong citrus scents. Pours a pale yellow colour , cloudy with a good white head. The body is light but moderately carbonated. Strong citrus with subtle spiced (perhaps...anise, corriander, vanilla) flavours. Excellent hot weather beer, strong citrus makes it very refreshing. I had it with Cambodian/Thai food and it matched very well.

Would drink this one again, but not at the top of my list. Pours a cloudly, light caramel/gold color. Large white head that dissipates slowly, leaving a small white head which stays throughout the beer. Nice amount of lacing. Aroma has a strong lemony scent. There was a bit too much carbonation, but overall a nice mouthfeel even though the carbonation gave it a bit of a bite. There was a citrus taste, a nice orange taste throughout. There was a bit of a lemon finish. Pretty good control of the taste, a nice mixture with the spices and all.

Bottled. A hazy orange coloured beer - the haze appearing at the final pour. A spicy, lemony aroma with oranges also. Light in body but there are the citric and spicy flavours I would expect. Shows more in common with French beers of this style than Belgian.

Rating for this beer are over-rated in my opinion. This smell is lemony and citrusy but with a hnt of a licorice smell. The flavor also has a hint of a licorice taste. It did have a nice refreshing taste, but the palate left an early aftertase that was not appealing. Good white appearance and lacing though.

This is the perfect beer for a warm SE Washington day. Clean, crisp flavor. Corinander and a slight orange flavor hits your nose as you take in your first sip. On draft here in SE Washington.

cloudy, yellow appearence. poured from a 12 oz bottle. hints of lemon and spices. beer is decent, but it lacks flavor and just seems to be missing something. a bit overpriced at 36 dollars a case wholesale.
