The "White" postfix is because it's "witbier", which translates into "white beer". White beer is a turbid, light-yellow type of beer, and ideal to enjoy on a hot day. You shouldn't just pour it in your glass as that makes it too clear, which influences it's taste. Ideally, you should not be able to see more than let's say 1.5cm (half an inch) through it. To get it turbid, first pour in about 3/4 of the bottle (preferrably without creating too much foam). Then shake the remaining quarter a bit, and pour it right in the middle of your glass to make it turbid and create the recommended 2 finger widths of foam: http://www.esquire.com/cm/esquire/im...ss-0609-lg.jpg You might also want to try La Trappe Witte Trappist, another superb white beer, IMHO much better than Hoegaarden (and Hoegaarden is already really good), but much harder to find. http://www.twinbeer.com/site_images/latrappewitte.jpg |

Oh, forgot to mention that my student corporation's pub is likely the cheapest pub in all the Netherlands, at 42 cents a beer (12 beer (Bavaria pilsner) for €5,00 if you buy them separately):)
If you buy them all at once, you can get 14 beer for €5,00:DL Or even 30 beer for €10,00:D That while a regular pub in Eindhoven usually doesn't get any cheaper than €1,00 a beer, at least. |

Glasses are much better than bottles. If you want to just relax and drink a good beer, you really need a glass. And if you want to drink fast and get drunk, you need a glass too because you simply can't drink fast from a bottle. ...So I guess if you don't want to get drunk AND you don't want to enjoy the taste of your beer, a bottle would be okay:hmmm: Seriously now:O:, you shouldn't drink the better, more expensive beers from the bottle. If you really want to enjoy the taste you should take a glass (yes, you can taste the difference. Especially in the case of white beer) |
