SPANISH PEAKS WHITE ALE

Peculiar turbid yellow belly aligns fruit-spiced malted hops in offbeat manner. Tangy orange peel luster, zesty grapefruit-lemon pith tartness, and black-peppered coriander-clove seasoning embittered by hop-spritzed grain persistence. Grassy hay-leather component found on milder second passing. Better choice than Celis White Ale as toned down carbonation, mountain water briskness, and softening citric finish illuminate better. Perfect with spicy foods or barbecued meat.

ALLAGASH WHITE BEER

Deliciously appealing flagship ale conquered the Eastern seaboard by 2010. Sourdough yeast sinew clouds this otherwise clear-hued wheat-fortified ‘interpretation’ of light Belgian-styled witbier. Zesty lemon-juiced tangerine tang entangles floral-hopped coriander-clove-chamomile-peppermint tingle and white-peppered lemongrass herbage. Tempting for open-minded drinkers or fans of Hoegaarden White Beer.
