Southampton Double White Ale

Brewed by Southampton Publick House
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
Southampton, New York USA

Appearance: Pours a lightly hazy, straw-colored body with a full, foamy, white head. Smell: Aroma of coriander and dried orange peel with a vague underlying maltiness. Taste: Delicate pale maltiness with a restrained honey-like sweetness. Strong spice component tasting of coriander, citrus peel, and white pepper. Low hop bitterness. Blip of acidity. Slightly sweet, slighty sour on the relatively crisp finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: I still feel the whole trend of doubling or imperializing witbiers is entirely lost on me, they don’t get twice as refreshing, quite the opposite, in fact.

cloudy pale pour lots of spiceyness with a nice yeast aroma malty and coriander orange yummy

12oz Bottle thanks to kmweaver, thanks Ken! I like witbiers’ so I wanted to try an east coast higly rated beer. This one was great. Perfect for the hot chicago summer. Wish this one could be available here. Poured a cloudy yellow haze, some fluffy head. Smells of spices, citrus and malts. Taste is soothing and refreshing. Leaving lots of aftertaste of pure goodness.

Bottle thanks to beerbill Pours a cloudy yellow color with little to no head. Smells spicy, with a few esters poking through. Flavour is very citrusy, with some spice in the middle, and a little bit of alcohol warmth, but not too much. There’s another flavour in there that might be the corriander, it’s kind of salt and pepper-ish, but I’m really not sure. There’s not a whole lot of hops, either flavour or bitterness. Carbonation is pretty high, but not offensive, and mouthfeel is nice, not too watery, but not too thick either. Pretty refreshing.

A- Pours a cloudy yellow color with a nice, frothy, white head. S- Smell is spicy, perfumey, citrus fruits, a bit of tartness / funk towards the end and a lemonadesque sweetness. T- Taste is very full, a blast of citrus fruits, spices, lemon with a tangy back end. M- Thick for the style with ample carbonation. Maybe a bit to thick and sticky. D- I haven’t had many witbiers but this is definitely the best I have consumed. Very drinkable, no off tastes. Quaffable for a summer evening.

Columbia, SC - Total Wines - 12 oz bottle. Murky, translucent light golden with a thin white head. Banana in the aroma with hints of bubble gum Flavor is on the sour side in a good way - with some strong lemony accents. Yeasty notes, coriander, hints of bubble gum. Spritzy mouthfeel which sits just right.

Bottle. Aroma of coriander, orange peel, orange/citrus esters. Flavor similar, just a little less big and luscious. Exquisitely gulpable and refreshing. Very nice.

Bottle. Pours a light gold with a nice white head that leaves pretty lacing on the glass. Aroma of spices, orange peel, anise, and Belgian yeast. Flavor of lots of spices, wheat, banana. Very refreshing and smooth. Good beer, very light for a "double strength" version.
