Hoegaarden Speciale

Bottle. Pale yellow/amber like with small white head that quickly despisers. Some dead yeast and cloudiness can be observed. Very similar to Hoegaarden White, but difference in colour. Much more pleasing look I thought. Not as strong aroma as the original Hoegaarden but same notes in the bouquet can be obtained similar to the original. Notes of wheat and citrus, coriander, fruit and sweetness Flavour has sweet and every so slightly bitterness and sourness. Light body. Very drinkable beer.

25cl bottle. Where is this burst of recent, scathing reviews coming from? 0.9! I wonder what you lot would give the likes of Tsingtao and Fink Brau? SImilar to the original Hoegaarden in colour, slightly darker with a much smaller head though. Very fresh, grassy taste, nicely balanced though a little sweet. Carbonation is a bit aggressive though and I miss the distinctive wheaty taste of the original.

bottle. pale yellow color. citrus carpy sweet. nasty. that all i got to say.

Cloudy golden colour, white head. Sweet alcoholic hop aroma. Sweet, bitter, not very dimensionless. Years a go it was better taste !

Deep hazy yellow with fine white head. Orange, lemon peel, spicy and alot of freshness. Bitterness and sweetness are nicely balanced.

Bottle. Hazy and scary yellow with a small white head. Sweet and sour in the not so good way. Hmm. Feels very synthetic.

Bottle at home - shared with Mette. Cloudy yellow - small white head. Elderflower, wheat, citus, sweet. A very light beer. Better than the Hoegaarden White - but it is not my favorit beerstyle.

Cloudy dull beige. Tart and wheaty aroma. Wheaty flavours, lots of orange character. Lots of dusty yeast notes, too. Not as bright as regular Hoegaarden, but doesn’t up the complexity either. So, kind of pointless, despite there being nothing particularly wrong with it technically.
