Hoegaarden Original White Ale
Beer pours a uniformly hazy white-gold with a stark white tightly bubbled head. Smell of spices and citrus upfront, strawlike yeast and astringency. Orange peel and coriander upfront with a lingering astringency from a combination of the orange and hop. Light and clean malt character with the straw and bread-dough yeast characters common with Belgian suds. Easygoing mouthfeel with a gentle carbonation, soft viscosity, and slight fizz at the end. Popular beer for good reason; really not one of my favorite styles but definitely quaffable and the well-known benchmark for the Witbier style.
