Hoegaarden

Sometimes a beer, like a certain smell or piece of music, can evoke all sorts of feelings and memories. Last night my evening out began just after 11 p.m. 8 years ago I would have been listening to Rachmaninoff and smoking and making a collage of cut and paste words at 11 p.m. 5 years ago I would've been at my typewriter in some foreign country drinking Georgian red wine and smoking Russian made Marlboroughs in a dirty apartment block building at 11 p.m. 3 years ago I would've been in front of a hot burning woodstove in overalls playing boardgames after cooking dinner for our country neighbours and getting ready to take a pre-bedtime bundled up walk through the woods at 11 p.m. 1 year ago I was in such anguish over a decision that I had to make that for 3 months every night at 11 p.m. was like every other hour, and every other second, eternal and damning. I've gone off on a tangent. Hoegaarden beer started my evening last night. It's a tangy, slightly carbonated beer that goes down oh so easily and leaves a faint citrus taste on the tongue rather than a bitter coating like a Heineken. It's naturally cloudy as though fruit zest has been added which apparently it has - the spicy hint is from orange peel and coriander. Delicious! If you like complex white wine then this is a perfect drink to make the transition to beer.
