White Rascal Belgian-Style Wheat Ale

Judging by the label and style, I feel this a perfect beer to follow the Lucifer review. I'm not quite sure exactly what a white rascal is. I couldn't find a reference to it in demonology. So that leads me to believe it is just the name of the beer, and the demonic image was added for the belgian religious image obsession I commented on in the last post.

In this post I'm going to be trying out a new review format to liven up the blog. It also keeps me from boring myself with the same sentence formulae I've been using for the past month.

Appearance: Cloudy, Light gold with a fluffy white head.

Scent:Smells of Hops, Wheat, and fruit. Based on the little blurb on the bottle,I'm going to guess the fruity smell is curacao orange peels.

Taste: a light taste with a fair amount of wheat and citrus.

This was a good beer overall. The orange peel was a nice touch. This beer made me realize i'm starting to really appreciate wheat beers. I don't know if I would place them before abbey ales,at least not at this point in my alcoholic journey.
