John's White Ale

White Ale's are Belgian style beers, often refered to as "Wit" beer.  Our version of this classic style is a wonderful spicy brew, infused with orange peel and coriander spices.  It has a crisp refreshing flavor and a slight 'white' haze from the large percentage of
wheat used in the mash. 

This beer was developed to celebrate John's Grocery's 50th anniversary and 3 generations of ownership.  It was such a wonderful beer that Millstream has continued producing it since 2002.

This beer has quickly become a favorite beer around here.
