Cold 22oz bottle: Pours a yellow color inundated with micro-nuggetts and a creamy, fluffy alabaster head. Aroma is of coriander spice, light grains and orange peel. Taste is of light grains well blended with subtle bitterness, lemon, grass and spice. Smooth and light to medium bodied with ample carbonation. Ending is lightly malty and spicy with sweet notes. Thanks DirtyMike! :)

This beer is decent. Citrus flavors dominate the finish and add to the crispness. After its all done it leaves a taste in my mouth that isn’t great, my only problem with this.

Pours pale, cloudy, light gold. A moderate, dense white head rose to an inch upon pouring, and receded to a skim coat, followed by a few mere whisps of bubble threads on the surface. Some subtle lacework was evident at first, but dissapated after a few sips. Aromatics are spicy, zesty, and fruity. Lemon zest and coriander take the lead, with notes of wet straw, cracked cumin, and mint follow through. Mouthfeel is a quenching balance of crispiness and creamyness. Carbonation is medium and slightly spritzy. The pallet is filled with citric twang, balanced spicing, and an earthy dryness. Lemon overtones layered on orange zest, white pepper, spearmint, and a slight citic bite of corainder. A yeasty, almost funky follow-through adds some nice depth and complexity. A more substantial grain bill and alcohol level keeps this double white from being watery. Finishes drying, slightly warming, and approachable for the next sip. At $7.99 per sixer, this beer kicks Allagash white out of the beer cellar.

Golden and hazy with a small, firm head. The aroma has sweetness, notes of oranges and coriander. The flavour has sweetness, notes of yeast, some initial rubber, coriander, oranges, curacao, citrus very sour and tart grapefruit and citrus peel, and this tartness is too dominating IMO.

Bottle. Spicy aroma, teaish, coriander and clove. Cloudy yellow colour, small white head. The flavour has the same spices as aroma along with a little yeast and a certain semi-pleasant bitterness. Refreshing and tasty enough, but nothing out of the ordinary.
