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

Enjoyed at The Stable. Finally got to taste this classic. Very nice. It appears semi filtered with a nice white soapy head. The aroma is lemon and clove. Flavor is pretty much the same with a bit of spice. A nice beer and an excellent representation of its style.

Hazy yellow appearance with a small but delicious head. Aroma of coriander, clove, phenolic banana, citruses. Citrus is in the flavor too with fine spicy tastes of coriander and clove. Nice wheat beer notes, fine lively carbonation. Not a big body but refresh, some bittery finish because orange peels.

Bottle. Aroma of banana and yeast. Cloudy pale yellow body, white head. Not overly sweet in flavor, refreshing, mainly citrus, banana, and some spiciness. Very pleasant and enjoyable, but not head and shoulders above other quality wits.

pale yellow, slightly cloudy somewhat highly carbonated starts with a moderate amount of hoppyness, the mouthful is medium and the finish comes out citrusy and spiced, from the coriander no doubt. Not really the kind of beer I like to enjoy on its own, but would prob go very well with certain foods.

From tap, pale yellow with an amazing whit head, aroma of yeasy-banana, citrus and spices,flavor is citrusy crisp with clove notes, very drinkable.

Pours a creamy gold with soft creamy head. Smells of soft citrus friut and spices. Tastes citrucy and spicy, lots of wheat, sweet and smooth. Vrey good.

Once you get past the way this beer looks, it’s actually pretty good. Poured a huge white head. The beer looks like cloudy, watered-down lemonade. The coriander is obvious in the nose. Mouthfeel was very refreshing, reminded me of a summer shandy because of the looks and how crisp it felt. The beer goes down really smoothly and has good lacing as you approach the bottom of the glass. The finish is pretty complex. It tries to be sweet, but the wheat is balanced nicely by the various spices. Only in the finish did I notice the orange peel.

Bottle. Pours hazy, lemonade yellow with thick, pillowy white head that dissipates rather quickly. Nose of lemon, coriander and wheat, slightly perfumy. Lemon and coriander taste with a solid malt background. Refreshing and smooth. Good wit-tasticness.
