Avery White Rascal

growler courtesy of ambrose. a nice version of the belgian white. citrus tones, light yeast flavor and aroma, clean finish. coriander comes through nicely. its has a slightly watery palate and its definitely not as dynamic as the style can be but would make a great session beer. grab a six, slice up a lemon and go to town.

Aroma: Clean with citrus notes, and mild spice. Appearance: Thick white head, hazy yellow. Flavor: Great wheat beer. Spice very noticeable but not overpowering. Palate: A little watery, with decent carbonation. Overall: Great beer, I’d happily drink this again.

Pours a light, hazy yellow with lots of rising bubbles and a frothy white head. The nose is a bit musty initially but settles into a typical wit: coriander, citrus and light wheat. The mouthfeel is light, thin and lively with a slightly chalky finish. The flavor follows the nose and makes for a crisp, clean thirst-quencher. This one is pretty representative of the style.

tap at new tasting room. hazy straw with thin white head. yeast, wheat, lemon, sour malts. smooth and light. mild sourness. grain and wheat. lemon. bitter finish.

a smoother and more friendly version of the blue moon. a true belgian white beer.

Aroma is yeasty and sweet, with hints of banana. Pours very pale but cloudy, small white head. Flavor is a little sweet, and tart, with a dry finish. Light body. Good if it’s hot out.

Cloudy, pale yellow with a white head. Smells fruity, with a little spice and the expected Belgian whit yeast character. Unfortunately the taste seems a little bland, not as appealing as the aroma. Also, it lacks the tartness that I’ve enjoyed in other whitbiers. Not a bad beer, just not the best I’ve had in this style. It is a pretty good value, I would reccomend it if you like this style and have a tight budget.

12 oz bottle. Pours bright golden cloudy with a firm white head and lacing. Nice aroma as expected for a Belgian Wit, with coriander, citrus, and yeast. Flavor is excellent. Spicy, citrus, and wheat notes are well balanced in a light, refreshing brew. Tiniest bit of soapy character, as expected in the style. Starts out vaguely sweet from the malt and dries out on the finish. Good medium body for a wit. I like it. Not as good as Hoegaarden, but excellent.
