Review - Allagash Brewing Company's White Ale
"Our interpretation of a traditional Belgian wheat beer, Allagash White is unique and truly refreshing. Brewed with a generous portion of wheat and our own special blend of spices, this beer is light and slightly cloudy in appearance, with a spicy aroma. Overall, it is a beer that is very drinkable and smooth any time of the year." -- Allagash Brewing Co.
First impressions here were good, when as soon as we popped the cork, we got a cloud of white smoke. Impressive intro. It pours with a full, frothy white head that mostly lasts. Hazy body crowned with good lacing. Aroma is a heavy shot of flowery hops. Smells very sweet. Initial taste, as expected, was lightly sweet, and that continues through the finish. Light on the mouth with a watery feel, soft carbonation.
