Hoegaarden Grand CRU

Abv: 8.5%
Type: Belgian Beer
Bottle size: 330ml
Website: www.inbev.com
Country: Belgium
Brewery : InBev
Price:
Reviewed in: Beers of the World Issue 4

Tasted by Jeff Evans in issue 4.
Nose : Bready and yeasty, with a peppery, orange spiciness.
Palate : Big, warming taste of bitter oranges and peppery spices. Hints of tropical fruits, mango and melon in particular.
Finish : Surprisingly dry and chewy, with lingering bitter fruits and spices. Warms the throat pleasantly, like a spirit.
Comments : A hazy yellow ‘triple’, laced with coriander and bitter orange peel. Unlike the increasingly ubiquitous Hoegaarden itself, this big brother is not a wheat beer. Now a touch weaker than a year ago (was 8.7%).
Score : 8
