Southampton Double White Ale is a cloudy, bleached-pale yellow color with an airy white colored head. The aroma has a complex wheat base, a touch of alcohol and a lot of citrus and lemon. The flavor is as complex as the aroma and has a great finish. This is a great strong Belgian White. tomthompson89 (1459), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 18, 2008 slightly cloudy, straw color, nose is coriander, dough, and some orange, flavor is ssome citrus, again some yeast, other belgian spices but very smooth and well balanced, quafable,
Very Nice JohnQPublic (387), Brooklyn, New York, USA Sep 18, 2008 Draught into tulip. Pours cloudy pale yellow, with a foamy white head that fades quickly and leaves no real lacing. Aroma is heavy on sweet lemon zest, with a bit of spicy yeast and coriander in there as well. Taste is sweet and crisp up front - wheat blends with lemon citrus, with the spicy yeast coming in right before a sweet, zesty, clean finish. Very drinkable, full flavored, with a slightly heavier body then many wits I’ve tried. Medium body, crisp carbonation, only a hint of dryness on the finish. ucusty (1871), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Sep 16, 2008 Cloudy yellow appearance. Taste is sour with lemons, bananas, and grapefruit. This is a good representation of a Belgian white. The spiciness is a little too overwhelming. thechandler (268), Morgantown, West Virginia, USA Sep 6, 2008 Bottle. Wheaty, lemon-citrus aroma. Moderate foamy head. Flavor....I don’t know. I guess since it’s called a "double white" I expected it to be stronger. It’s not at all. It tastes about the same as your average wit, with a little bit more alcohol flavor. Not bad at all, but alas, it didn’t meet my expectations. joebudzjoe (222), Connecticut, USA Sep 1, 2008 On draft @ Monster B’s. Very fizzy pour with a thin bubble sip. Tones of orange, coriander and a bit of honey. Very light despite the ABV. My only big complaint is that it gave me a wicked case of acid reflux later on that night. Naka (524), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 26, 2008 Pours a hazy golden orange color with tons of sediment floating around. The head is about 1 finger thick and off-white. No lacing. Nose is lemon, bubblegum, honey, and yeast. The flavor didn’t pack as much punch as I thought it would, but it is very pleasing. Up front is more of the spicy yeast flavor, but it isn’t too bitey... it maintains a pretty smooth character. As that fades, there is some citrus and malty notes that linger on the tongue as the alcohol comes out. Leaves a slight bitterness in the mouth. A very creamy texture. josarah (106), Hinesburg, Vermont, USA Aug 21, 2008 12oz. bottle, lemon aroma, cloudy gold color, white head. I thought the lemon was a bit strong, but with the higher level of carbonation it worked well. Nice summer brew.
