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.

Had this in bottle in Philadelphia. Similar to Hoegaarden but with just enough differences to not make it a copy cat. Little more hops/floral to it than the straight coriander/citrus of Hoegaarden.

Draft. Poured a hazy golden body. Aroma is light fruit, spices, corriander. Flavor is light spices, floral hops, orange peel. Mouthfeel was nice but thicker body than I expected.

Smooth and frothy, nice cloudy orange body. Wheat flavor with orange, oats and melon undertones. Not a bad white brew.

Draft at McGrath’s pub in Harrisburg, PA.I have had this in the past many times, but since Ross has a man crush on the brewers at Allagash, I figured I would enter this rating to shut him up. Pours amber orange with a thin white head. Aroma of orange and wheat malts. Medium bodied but with a refreshing texture- with no wateryness. Flavor of orange, coriander, wheat malt, and belgian phenols. Attenuation is normal, somewhere in the middle. Finish has a semi dry yeast and clove dominance, perhaps a very very faint hint of hops. Enjoyable, but not the best wit beer in the universe like Ross makes it out to be.

Nice white beer. Smells and tastes like an American verison of the Belgium beer where it orginates from. Medium bodied, orange and corriander. Almost no hint of hops. Good for beginners.

This is a quite spicy white. Lots of coriander, some hiding orange. Pretty nice; good and spicy.
