how is it? did i fuck up by not buying any at the store? i'm on a quest to find a beer that I genuinely do not like, and this has entailed 6-packs upon 6-packs for investigation. I have come to one so far: sam adams summer wheat. either it was flat or it was shit. i'm leaning toward shit.

so this hoegaarden?

it's not that bad but some fairy will put a lemon wedge in it for you.

not a euphemism.

i think it's horrible. taste how I imagine sun tan lotion tastes.

oh, so it's like blue moon? i can't do the blue moon w/ fruit in it, but without it's alright. maybe i made the right decision.

Yeah, I don't much care for Hoegaarden either. Had some while in Scotland...yuck!

I think the beermart sold us 60 cases for $300

lotion? fairies jamming lemon wedges? sounds like something I affectionately call Saturday Night.

i've really gone thru quite a list of beers in this experiment, as it's stretched since late spring. i should have kept a tally.

oh, i guess i could have just looked at haq's poll on this. didn't even notice

I love hoegaarden more than any other white beer. I could drink buckets of it. Perfect summer time beer or autumn/winter beer if you happen to be lucky enough to be someplace warm. I can see it being an acquired taste though, as it's kind of clovey.

It's not that bad, but its not that great.

Right now, no matter where he is, OPA! is boasting an obner.

That's gonna be my Christmas username, I think.

Pretty much how I feel..I'll get a taste for it and have about 2 and then be done with the Hoe for a while...and I'm not a fan of the lemon wedge...

I love hoegaarden, and I do not like Blue Moon.

I drank two or three of them one day, and that's about all I think I really need. Better than Grolsch.

The fuck you say to me?

I like it. But no fruit. The bartenders here try to give you either lemon or orange. No!! But it's kindof sweet and not heavy, so good when it's hot outside. It's better than Blue Moon. The taste sort of reminds me of the way potpourri smells. (but not so overwhelming)

Hoegaarden is good. Also good with a lemon wedge, assuming you're drinking draught. I don't like lemons in any kind of bottled beer.

It's a warm weather beer, and I probably have like one or two a year.

i don't like it
but it seems to be the beer of choice for girls with tastebuds.

i too love hoegarden. i've never bought it at the beer store, only at bars, and ive never seen it served with any kind of fruit. but it does ge tserved in the biggest bucket of a glass ever.

first beer i had when i got out of jail for a month, should tell you something

a nearly perfect summer beer, and no beer drinker should be ashamed of having it with a lemon wedge (when draught).

i love it. i probably drink it more than any other beer, because 1) often it's the only belgian around, and 2) it's not $8/12oz. like the others.

I'm not big on Belgian beers but this one I like pretty well. I can usually only drink one before I'm ready to move on to something else though. I think a lot of wheat beer tastes like regular beer with sand poured into it.

i've stolen 3 of those big fuckers, which are roughly 2.5 beers each. You can get them at the beer store, the bottle gives you instructions of how to pour to get the best draught like taste.

Man do I miss The Beer Store. Ontario has the best liquor stores in the world.
