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

Also called Citron on some markets — Hoegaarden with lemon and lime infused into the wheat base. Very pale straw pour, extra-hazy, big lemon-lime aromatics with a sugary-sweet undertone from the fruit and a light tart finish. At 3% it's a proper porch beer, not a session ale — the lemon does the work.
