The Hoegaarden ritual is as much about the glass as it is about the beer. Always serve your Original White Ale in its signature hexagonal glass, which is designed to maintain the perfect temperature and showcase the beer's cloudy, straw-like appearance.
Start by rinsing the glass with cold water to ensure a clean pour. Tilt the glass at a 45-degree angle and pour slowly until the glass is about two-thirds full. Swirl the remaining beer in the bottle to wake up the yeast, then pour the rest to create that beautiful, thick, creamy head.
This method ensures the delicate balance of coriander and orange peel is perfectly aerated, delivering the refreshing, citrus-forward experience that Hoegaarden is famous for worldwide.
