COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
New South's White Ale is an American interpretation of a classic Belgium wheat ale. This light and refreshing ale is brewed with just a hint of a orange zest. Like all of New South's draft ales and lagers, our White Ale is always fresh and satisfying.

Tap flight. Light straw pour with a short lived white head. Faint wheat aroma. Taste is wheat and barley grain. Cleaning the mouth but flavor lingers. Decent.

Cloudy yellow pour with watery white head and lace. Paper and wheaty malt aroma. Wheaty malt with a light bitter finish. Light bodied to thin with decent carbonation. ok beer.

while i can appreciate a wit in a can, this one is pretty meh. it has all of the qualities of a inferior wit, but doesnt quite go into boring american wheat. but the can is novel and great for taking to the beach.

Ok, this rating is totally skewed because I have a different POV. Being a student in dirty myrtle I had to try this beer. I took it back to FL with me and saved it til I really wanted it and when I did, I got addicted! It is not a GREAT beer, but for a can of local SC beer it is crisp, refreshing, not over filling, not too light but still creamy...literally everything I wanted. This is like blue moon in a can, only way better. Don’t talk shit unless your head is up your ...

From notes: I picked up a can of this after having their IPA. Looks good: orange with lacing of white. It had an okay head. There was a little orange smell there. Not much. The taste of this seems kind of average. Not terrible by any stretch. It tastes like a white beer. It just doesn’t have that, "This is really refreshing... give me another" taste. Good carbonation.

The aroma is rather weak with only a hint of wheat, spice, or citrus. The appearance is hazy gold with a thin, fizzy head. The taste is like the aroma being pleasant but watery and forgettable. The palate is smooth. Overall a drinkable beer but not one I would brag on.

bubbleflubber (1206) - Asheville, North Carolina, USA - JUN 30, 2011
Pours clear light golden lime, with a sudsy light, fully diminished head that leaves spotty lace. The nose is of weak yeast. Flavors of effervescent citrus fruits and some possible coriander in the finish. Very weak body, almost seltzery. Not complex, overcarbonated and underwhelming. Thank God it’s sunny hot outside.

Not a whole lot going on; very dry, with a slight bit of citrus on the finish. Easy to drink, but the Belgian side never comes through. Still, the lack of sweetness keeps this beer from becoming thick and clingy, and the fade is quick and mildly tart. The packaging earns a couple extra bumps.
