4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 SPDickerman (326) - Texas, USA - JUN 10, 2011
Pours hazy yellow gold with a finger and a half of bright white, soapy head. Smells bready and yeasty with citrus notes and a bit of barnyard hay. Tastes very citrusy at first and then with a very little bit of saison funk. Medium-bodied with a smooth texture and mild mouth-carbonation, Ommegang Hennepin finishes with a faint dryness and a touch of citrus.

Nice golden color with dense white head. Spicy nose with notes of citrus and a hint of wheat. Spicy flavor, a bit of sharpness and hint of yeast. Finishes clean. A very nice summer refresher

I truly am a fan of this. It’s absolutely fantastic. Full flavored. Refreshing. If there is any brew that I would want to drink on a hot summer day...it would have to be hennepin.

Draft sampled at Magic City Brewfest. Pours slightly hazy golden with a medium-sized white head. Aroma is peppery, spicy, grassy, fairly sweet, some yeastiness. Flavor is light but complex: sweet, pepper and spice, some refreshing Belgian yeastiness and tartness, some citrus. Crisp carbonation. Finishes drier than it starts, but not dry per se.
