About This Drink

Hoegaarden 0.0 goes through bottle fermentation before the alcohol is removed, which gives it more character than a witbier simply brewed to low ABV. The result pours cloudy golden with a decent white head and smells like it should: citrus, a herbal edge, gentle spice. On the palate, the coriander and orange peel are clearly present but neither dominates. There's a soft biscuity wheat base underneath, with a faint banana and bubblegum note that's typical of the style and a light creaminess that keeps it from feeling thin. The finish is on the sweet side, without much bitterness to balance it. It's a straightforward AF witbier. The bottle fermentation step does seem to help the body, and if you're used to the alcoholic Hoegaarden it's a recognisable approximation rather than a pale imitation.
