Encyclopedic overview
Hoegaarden Brewery (/ˈhuːɡɑːrdən/ HOO-gar-dən, Dutch: [ˈɦuɣaːrdə(n)] ) is a brewery in Hoegaarden, Belgium, and the producer of a witbier, a type of wheat beer. Hoegaarden de-emphasizes hops, and is unfiltered, giving it the hazy, or milky, appearance--which makes it a wit (white) beer.
