Name: Hoegaarden
Origin: Belgium
Style: Wheat Ale (Witbier 4.9%)
Appearance: Orange and copper in colour, this beer pours with a small, fizzy head.
Taste: Some minor aromas that remind me of incense and floral hoppy notes as well. This whit is spicy with strong notes of cloves and banana. Finishes sweet, with a lingering banana like aftertaste.
Mouth Feel: Soft and easy drinking. This beer is highly refreshing and easily quaffable.
Final Thoughts (3.5 out of 5): It’s hard to believe I am drinking the same Hoegaarden I had several years ago. All I could taste then was the overpowering spices and could barely finish my pint. It goes to show you how much your tastes can change and evolve overtime.
