on tap, Capone’s
Pours a hazy straw color with a thick white head that lasts. Aroma has some spicyness and orange scents. Flavor is crisp, slightly sweet, and pleasantly only mildly spiced and fruity. Very quaffable. Would be a great BBQ beer on a hot day.

Oct 9, 2008 Can’t taste anything other than the basic characteristics of white ales. This was number 25 on my beerfest quest.

Oct 8, 2008 (Bottle from 1828 Vintage House) Pours fairly cloudy golden with only a very small off-white head. Lack of head is quite surprising esp. since beer was decanted into a weizen. Body is also clearer than I would have expected. Hmmm. Inviting aroma of citrus, spice, bread and yeast. Mouthfeel is wheaty smooth with a decent amount of heft for the style. Flavor of citrus, spice and bread with a bit of a wheaty, boozy quality like in a weizen bock only in a lighter, more refreshing style. Maybe a touch of pepper in the finish and aftertaste. Kind of nice!

Oct 5, 2008 Poured a cloudy light yellow with a small white head that did leave a little bit of a lacing. It was very easy to drink and was wheaty with a little light spices. You could taste the yeast.

Oct 1, 2008 Light pale with white head that left some lacing. Aroma was grassy/musty and slightly fruity. Citrus and spicy flavor, clean and little hop profile. A nice easy drinking and flavorful summertime brew, with a bit more kick as a double.

Sep 30, 2008 Cloudy, tan-olive colored pour that leaves lace on the glass. Pungent, citrusy aroma with strong floral and malt tones. This is quite robust for a witbier. The Belgian yeast flavor comes thru clearly, and other flavors are noticable too - orange, snappy hops, and a little coriander. More malty-yeasty than gently sweet, this is a spicey wheat ale that you could sip while watching autumn raindrops fall. This is my first rating of a Southampton Publick House brew, and you can color me impressed.
