An Interesting Beer

Advantages: Very distinctive with a lovely taste
Disadvantages: A bit pricey in pubs

The first time I tasted Hoegaarden was from a specialist beer shop. Since then it has become more available, on sale in pubs and supermarkets. Depite it becoming more available it has kept the taste that first attracted me to it. It is a white cloudy beer, dont let that put you off. It is has a lovely distinctive taste which stands out from other beers. It is a strong beer and because of that maybe a bit pricey, it is available in330ml or big 750ml ...
...the day, don't say I didn't warn you! If you are like me and consider yourself a lover of true beers, (Should Lager be legal?) this is one that you should at the least try. This is currently available in supermarkets for £7.00 for 8 x 330ml bottles, well worth buying. ...

Review of Hoegaarden White

Summer in a bottle

Advantages: Easy to drink and my local Tesco stock it.
Disadvantages: Boyfriend keeps drinking my bottles!

...hiding it! Anyway Kronenbourg Blanc is a refreshing, fruity, white beer imported from France. This 5% ABV premium draught and botteled white beer has been created by those master brewers at Brasseries Kronenbourg, inspired by the 13th century Cevoise brewing style. Also in the Kronenbourg family you will find Kronenbourg 1664, Premier Kru and there own 'widget in a can' with Dynamo Systeme. It is served cloudy, which is the continental style. It ...
...with subtle citrus and soft fruit flavours. Now I know that when reading corriander and cloves it doesn't sound nice, but put that thought right out of your mind. It has a gentle, fruity taste which is not overpowering, but welcomingly different. It is best served chilled. Although it is described as a white bear, is is essentially a wheat beer, as it is in the ingrediants. The name describes the appearance of the beer. It is a pale yellow colour ...

Review of Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc

My expeirence of this beer- BLURRY ;)

Advantages: Tasty
Disadvantages: Gets you drunk

My experience of this beer is blurry, if you catch ma drift. lolol sorry back to the point: This beer tastes suprisingly light and is perfect for someone who doesnt like the bitterness of most beers. It has a lovely cherry taste to it and if this is what you're looking for then you might prefer kriek MAX. which is less alcohol and more cherry. It is best served just below room temp. not too cold because it begins to lose its taste. It is however ...
...and looks great in a large wine glass. The odour is mediocre but thats made up for by the taste, there are many other makes and all are slightly different. You man want to expeeriment to findyou favourite maker. Have a nice day and please continue to use Ciao! ...

Gimme that ding! (Erdinger Weissbier)

Advantages: Bottled beer allowing it to be enjoyed all over Europe
Disadvantages: Not widely available in the UK and can be expensive

...rest of Germany. Erdinger is available mainly as a bottled beer outside the local Bayern region. Although, I have had the beer served on draught as far a field as in Grenoble, France! The taste is a little variable as the yeast imparts a perfume and dryness to the flavour as it rests in the bottle. Younger bottles may taste sweeter but still with the characteristic yeasty signature. That’s enough of the Oz Clarke’s! The half-litre bottles contain ...
...Heffe is very fine and forms a cloud of yeast in the beer when is poured correctly to extricate all of the yeast particles into its own impressive shaped glass. To serve the beer, you should pour all but a inch in the bottom of the bottle in to a tall glass large enough to take the half-litre bottle, and then swirl the bottle to create a mousse-like head that nearly fills the bottle and then lay the bottle on it’s side to allow the mousse to change ...

Review of Erdinger Wiess Bier

Clearly a Beer

Advantages: Complex, interesting and refreshing
Disadvantages: Too light bodied

...The Bavarian BRAUEREI WEIHENSTEPHANER is apparently the oldest brewery in the world, so I expect they've picked up a bit of expertise in the art of brewing over the years. They produce a range of beers, but as the category above states, this little gem of impartiality concerns their KRISTALL WEISSEBIER. It's brewed with a combination of wheat and barley malt, and is filtered. Obviously, it's brewed in strict adherence to the Reinheitsgebot, the German ...
...hops and yeast can be used. For more information about the brewery, its history and other products, click on the link below. But first, a word from our sponsors... THEY SAY: "The source of its pearling, effervescent taste is the secret fermentation process which we have developed especially for our crystal wheat beer. It quenches your thirst like no other beer. With its elegant appearance, it is the speciality of our brewery. Goes well with fish, ...
