Avery White Rascal

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

maybe my bottle was skunked or something but this beer was not good in my book. i’ll have to have another shot at it another time. so forgive the low score it’ll change.

Poured a cloudy golden color with a thin white head with barely any lacing. The aroma was of wheat, citrus fruit, and some spice. The flavor was pretty similar, but the aftertaste was kind of blah. There just wasn’t much to it. It was light bodied and a little sweet on the finish. It wasn’t bad, but I would go to a different witbier instead fo this.

This is a good Belgian beer with the usually suspects used to spice it up. If you like witbiers pick this one up next time you see it

Cloudy light gold color, active bubbles and a big white head make a good first impression. Orange aroma mixed with honey and a bannana wheat. Light palate that’s surprisingly sedate compared to the carbonation I saw on the pour. Definite honey flavor and highly bready taste. If there is hops mixed in, it is completely unnoticed, leading to a sweet finish. Not as spicy or complex as the true Belgium imports it aspires to emulate. For the price though, its not a bad choice.

bottle pours a light wheat color with not too much going for looks until you swirl the last of the yeast and dump it on. there we go a nice hazy color with a good looking layer of foam on the glass. the yeast really clouds it out and changes the smell as well. smell is wheat and spices, you can smell alcohol as well, some funky stringy looking floaters like fruit pulps in there too. taste is weak on the wheat, not too much spice and the alcohol is there in the taste as well which is odd for a 5.5% white. the carbination is what saves this and my interest, gives a nice mouth feel, and finishes pleasant and refreshing. somewhat dry but also refreshing, for a summer beer it is not too bad. that stringy floating stuff keeps my appearance rating low.

On draft at the Saucer. Hazy light golden body with a an ample white head. Typical aroma of citusy coriander. Tastes slightly sweet up-front with a tart finish. Satisfying.
