Food pairing
Wheat beer + white chocolate = a perfect marriage of flavors. This dessert has a balance that ideally reflects the characteristics of the beer. White chocolate, soft and creamy, plus lemon and ground coriander seeds are a clear reflection of Hoegaarden. The delicate notes of banana appear in the beer in a more straightforward manner, yet the overall taste remains fresh and balanced. |
