🌍 Belgium · Fruit Wheat Ale · One of 4 Fruit Wheat Ales in hopIQ

Hoegaarden's cherry-forward wheat beer — natural cherry juice and cherry-blossom aroma layered onto the original witbier base. Fuller and darker than Rosée, dense fruity sweetness with a soft coriander-and-clove wheat-beer spine underneath. Bright ruby in the glass. Not a lambic-style kriek — a Hoegaarden with the cherry taken seriously.
