Avery White Rascal

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

Cloudy pale yellow. Creamy head and both stringy and spotty lacing. Nose full of musky wheat and lemon citrus. Coriander and nice fruity esters. Doughy yeast. Sourness throughout. Lemons again with more yeast and dough. Spices come through a bit more muted. Grassy hops and more wheat. Nice body and a fruity sour finish. Good example of the style.

This is the best American made witbier I’ve had to date. Beautiful cloudy white with a puffy 2 finger head that laced the whole glass. Aroma of yeast and citrus. Taste was all citrus and a crisp wheaty finish. Refreshing and delicious.

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.

Pours a nice cloudy yellow. Aroma is very creamy. Flavor is coriander and other types of citrus. Very spicey mouthfull at the end. Noty bad but better out there, say in Belgium.

Bottle. Classic cloudy, pale piss color. Small, lasting head with a little lace. Clean coriander-citrus, yeast, and bubblegum aroma. Flavor is similar, but with more peppery hops and bitter orange peel than expected. As a result, this one seems less sweet than I normally prefer in a wit, but it seems to work well in this beer. Palate is dry and smooth, with good hop and carbonation-tingle, refreshing and light-bodied.

Thin bright white head. Reduces rather quickly. Good carbonation. Yeast, lemon, spices, little sweetness. Color is a slightly hazy gold. Light crisp flavor with plenty of spices. Little malts for backbone. Some wheat on the tongue. Finish is crisp and slightly tart/bitter and dry. A decent brew.

Thin and ultra light colored. Nose of corn adjunctness - yep, too sweet and artificial from the get go? A tad bit of pepper, certainly a very wheaty wit (thinly sour). Uninspired to say the least. Much better at the end with the yeast pour.

Hazy yellow hue, with an off-white head, yeasty, wheaty, spicy nose of coriander spiciness, juicy lemony, citrus fruitiness, with some curaçao notes, faint floral hop in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, crisp zesty citrusy, wheat malt character, with an orange peel accent, grapefruit and lemon fruitiness, with a spicy coriander note, leading towards a lemony acidic, hop bittering finish.
