Hoegaarden

On to somewhat of a classic.

Obnoxious beer snob that I am these days, I entered this one without massive expectation having not encountered this beer in some time. Turns out I was doing it a bit of a disservice as it's a more than serviceable 5% witbier / belgian white that, while simple, exhibits all that you really want from this style.

Pours hazy light golden; slight coriander, sugar, and lemon on the nose. Relatively strong carbonation but that makes it quite refreshing in its own way. Shame summer's a while off as I think I could go through a few of these in the heat. Good stuff! 7.5
