Pours a hazy lemonade yellow with small white beaded head. Aroma is wheat, orange peel, coriander, and belgian yeast. Taste is coriander and citrus with a very clean wheat/malt finish. Pretty good witbier.

Pense em uma cerveja capaz de te introduzir um mundo novo. A Hoegaarden é um excelente primeiro passo para quem espera tirar mais proveito da sua relação com a cerveja. Novos integrantes da tribo da cerveja que comecem a sua experimentação com essa cerveja, estão em boas mãos. Excelente aroma cítrico, é possível perceber todos os aromas do processo produtivo. Uma cerveja que pode ser servida bem gelada, recomendação do Xavier Depuydt. Lembrando que o bem gelada significa no mínimo 3 graus. O sabor é impactante. Não é tão complexo como cervejas de abadia. É um sabor mais estabelecido no ambito perceptivel. Fica evidente os toques de baunilha.

Looks almost like lemonade in the glass with a decent white head. Aroma of Belgian yeast and some citrus. Tastes pretty refreshing, but it doesn’t have alot of depth. I’ve tasted the orange in this more in the past, but this one doesn’t pack as much of a punch, and the coriander is there but not prominent. I would give this a sub 3 if I knew it wasn’t this bland, but I’ve had fresher bottles than this, so I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt.

Considered by many to be the bench-mark for a witbier, this brew certainly does not disappoint!! Truly a great brew made for these hot Texas summers! The contrast of sweet and sour flavors pleases well on many levels – smell, taste, and quenching one’s thirst! Would definitely love to go to Belgium and try this brew there at its freshest.

Draught at various places. Very pale yellow, almost opaque with a small creamy white head. Nice cloves and yeast on the nose. Really nice actually. Palate treads the fine line between clean and boring but finishes smoothly, hint of bready sweetness. Surprisingly decent.

Boliv (964) - New York, USA - SEP 20, 2011
Bottle. Pours hazy orange and yellow with a medium white head. Aromas of clove, wheat, and citrus, somewhat spicy. The flavor is sweet yeast and wheat, orangepeel, slightly tangy. Medium carbonation. Good. [801]

White head that disappears very quickly. Unfiltered yellow-white color. Very aromatic herbal essences, citric notes and fresh wheat. Refreshing sweet wheat and malt. Hard to perceive the hops. Some sweeteness of aftertaste but not much.

bottle and tap. Probably the best wit beer i’ve tasted yet. Lovely texture and color. Try the draft one.
