Avery White Rascal

Brewed by Avery Brewing Company
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Boulder, Colorado USA

Bottled. Pours cloudy yellow like a very thick lemonade. Aroma is sweet belgian yeast with banana/orange and spices. Flavor is fruity orange and a very thick wheat. Great malt body with some other lighter fruit flavors: lemon, banana, orange peel, light honey. The mouthfeel is very robust for this sytle, and really makes the fruit flavors more noticable as well. The wheat is enough to keep it from being overly sweet.

From bottle. August Dayton Beer Tasting event - Favorite Summer Brews. Pours hazy yellow with standard witbier aromas of spice, orange peel and yeast. Falls apart a little on the taste. Thin and too sweet for my palate.

Tap at Barcade: Pours a cloudy yellow with a creamy white film of head. Decent wheaty nose with spicy/perfumy orange peel and a touch of coriander; standard. Has a light/pillowy feel. The flavor has papery wheat malt upfront, along with mild honey and lemon. The coriander comes through toward the finish. The flavor seems just a tad sweet, but it’s still a pretty good example of the style.

Bottle... Poured a vibrant, pastel yellow with a frothy, white head. Aroma is a bit musty, slight citrus and and a yeast tanginess. A solid crispness to the beer, citrus hops and yeast characters and a spices and coriander.

A light bodied belgian white. More of a sour note than many of the whites that I’ve had in the past. Easy to drink on a hot summer day, I like it, but I probably won’t get much in the future.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a smallish head, colors very pale yellow, pleasant cloud of yeast, nose has yeast, usual spice, coriander, semi allspice, tastes of yeast, and spices. A pleasant summer wheat.

i was not a huge fan of this witbier, but my palate is a bit particular, and many belgian styles i find to be distasteful. the few that i do like...man, they’re good. this one was served cold from a 12oz. bottle. it poured light yellow/gold with a white head. some lacing. the aroma was floral and citrus-y, which made mequite excited to taste it. taste left something to be desired. smooth, but just not flavorful enough for me to really enjoy it.

I love Witbeirs. While this is not a true Witbeir its darn close. This is a good Belgian White that you could drink a lot of on a warm sunny day out on the deck. The aroma is very suttle with slight hints of orange. The appearance is thirst quenching with its golden light color. The palate is nice and smooth. The taste is hard to put your finger on, has very light hints of orange and citrus, but also gives off a floral after taste.
