Belgian White Ale Recipe
Another recipe for our Summer Beer series comes to us from Allagash Brewing in Portland, Maine.
I really love the light and citrusy flavor of this beer. A good friend on the Brewing Knowledge Base forum (BKB for short) gave me this clone recipe for Allagash White. (Thanks again to ”Dartgod”)
Allagash White is one of the greatest everyday drinking beers available. Living in New England, I am fortunate to have access to a ready supply of this beer. However, I am going to try my hand at brewing this one very soon. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do.

Man, I almost forgot about this clone recipe from Allagash. I saw it before, and knew I needed to brew it. I have 5 batches in line right now, so I guess I’ll have to just go buy some today to enjoy with the loads of dead animals I’m grilling up later…….

This is a fav style of mine as well. Goes well in Spring and Summer for sure, but is also good for a change of pace during the colder season as well.
One day I’d like to try and brew..
