Hoegaarden Hougaerdse Das

Brewed by Brouwerij Hoegaarden (InBev)
Style: Belgian Ale
Hoegaarden, Belgium

Bottled. Clear dark golden. Aroma of toffee and banana. Medium bodied and medium sweet, rather clean mouthfeel. Some grassy hops shine through.

Taste somewhre between pilsener and Palm. Something is missing. Lacks character

A bit of a surprise until I duh, realised that this one was a wheat beer that has a lot of the usual characteristics to distinguish this beer. Trouble is there is not a great amount of real characte that makes this a good beer. It has a reasonably good presentation and lasts well in the glass. A reasonable fruitiness with banana and typical diacetyl and citric finish. Low bitterness fisihes t off as a fair beer.

Pale cloudy yellow/gold. Sweet banana, malt and a grassy quality to the nose. Light sour, w/ wheaty yeasty finish. and a lemon quality troughout. Refreshing!

Hazy deep orange color with fine creamy, airy head. Good nose with hints of malts, coriander, white fruits and curaçao orange peal. It has a pure taste with a nutty accend and a fruity freshness. Nice refreshing afthertaste.

Sweet with a hint of floral honey in the aroma, and some yeasty spice. Hazy amber body with a smallish white head. Subtle, pleasantly yeasty with a hint of lemony sourness at times. Palate is effervescent and light. Pleasant and quaffable but unexciting. Thanks Doug

Amber, fairly average head. Aroma of spice, yeast sweet fruit and alcohol. Medium bodied , rather clean , touch of wheat feel ,yeast , some roasted aftertaste .Simple brew . Dry alcohol spoils the fun.

Cloudy amber. Rocky white head. Yeasty & fruity aroma of peaches & cream, banana, & apples w/ a mild grassy spiciness. Grainy, juicy feel. Flavour is yeasty, fruity & malty. Finish is dry, grassy, & mildly spicy. A light lemony sourness also permeates this beer.
