Very pale and watery looking. Has a soapy, lemony flavour. Clearly artificially sweetened. Unpleasant.

The bottle looks a bit cheap, the beer in the glass is very light, small head. Starts very, very sweet. Artifical notes of lemon. The beer becomes thiner in the end, goes down like water. Quite refreshing, but not really enjoyable.

Pours very pale gold/yellow with a fluffy white head. Sort of sicky sweet lemon/lime smell. 7-Up aroma. Medium body with frothy carbonation. It is lemon/lime. Ok, if that’s what one likes. Finishes less than dry. Would perhaps be acceptable on a dry hot day.

Bottle from Cafe Centrum, Veurne, Belgium, 12-06-09 I asked for this, in fact I pointed to it on the list twice, so have to assume that this was what I got but I never got to see the bottle. Still there were two large slices of lemon in it as well so it tasted lemony. I found this refreshing after our cycle ride. Poured yellow in colour, wheaty, it was ok. A4 A3 F5 P3 Ov9 2.4

30cl Bottle from AH. Slightly hazy very pale yellow colour, thin white head. Aroma of lemon, a hint of grapefruit and passionfruit, but mostly dishwasher, a hint of wheat. Flavour is is sweet, sugar, lemon/lime, like bitter lemon. Too sweet to be refreshing. This reminds me of the South Park episode in which Indiana Jones gets raped by it’s creative directors. Substitute Indy for Hoegaarden and you’ll get the picture.

25cl bottle. Hoegaarden with lime. Pours cloudy golden, thick white head. Aroma of citronelle/green lime wheat and yeasty. Taste, citrus, green, light coriander wheat, yeasty. It’s refreshing, simple, and again a beer that tries to mimic the German radlers by offering subpar products with fruits.

Thanks go out to bu11zeye for this gem. Pours with a hazy golden body and a white head. Aroma is a myriad of different sodas, including sprite, Schweppes Bitter Lemon, and Gini. Also some lemon grass, car seat conditioner, and coriander. Taste is sickly sweet with artificial sweeteners and diet artificially flavored lemon-lime soda. Fizzy and dry. Not a beer, but a very artificially flavored soda.
