Eructoblaster (2043) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - MAR 14, 2011
Bottle - 250ml. Cloudy golden body with a fair white foamy/creamy head. Decent malty/hoppy aroma with citrusy and yeasty hints. Taste is well balanced and refreshing, but it lacks complexity. Ends with a decent bittersweet finish. Average Witbier.

Abio (1058) - Waasland, BELGIUM - MAR 10, 2011
Light cloudy orange coloured with a small head that won’t stay. Smell is very citrusy, sweet caramel, spiced and wheats. Taste is a bit to watery for me. Citrus, slightly some wheat and sweetness gets his way up. The taste is not that bad, but to watery for me.

txspartan (602) - Wilrijk, BELGIUM - FEB 27, 2011
Nice winter edition of the Hoegaarden beer. The slightly burned malt brings that nice and warm golden colour.

25 cl bottle, Sheffield, UK. The Dram Shop. Hazy orange-yellow, bubblegum and a faint banana aroma. Bright first sip, then an immediate yeasty depth. Clove burn on the finish.
