Hoegaarden

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

Hazy yellow with thin white head. Very easy to drink and quite refreshing but really very boring in a sense. Much better wits out there but still fairly solid

Bottled. Pours hazy yellow with large cloudy head. Aroma is wheaty, yeasty and has quite sharp spicy coriander and citrus fruit peel. Flavor is a combination of sweet wheat and sourness of yeast. Palate is light bodied and soft, and very easy to drink. Still carbonated enough to be refreshing. Not surprising but certainly tasty and refreshing.

It’s obvious why this beer is so popular. It’s shockingly refreshing and easy to drink. A sweet taste without being too over the top. Can’t go wrong with this one.

Bottle, 330 ml. Poor light yellow with white head. Sweet and refresh. A good beer, but not the best one.

This is the first beer that made me believe in the importance of the glass you drink it out of. The special hexagonal Hoegaarden glass really enhances the experience. As for the beer, it’s one of my favorites. I tend to prefer darker beers, but this light yellow beer with a touch of spice is really refreshing and enjoyable.

This is a great session beer. There’s not much more to say for this beer that hasn’t already been said. I do like the absence of a sour flavor. I sort of expect sourness when I drink weizens and Belgian whites, but not so in this beer, which makes it easy to drink.

Finally rating this. Poured a nice soft yellow color. Nice white head. Aroma was yeast and soft spice. Taste was much the same, with a nice balance and crispness. This beer is very nice for how available it is.

Pours yellowish with a somewhat large head. Aroma is spicy and citrusy with some sweetness evident as well. Flavor is well balanced and full- lots of spice, hops and malt all in great proportions. Body is a bit thin, but given the style it is actually quite nice. Nice one.
