*[‘barley’ / ‘wheat’] + ‘top-fermented’ beer brewed mainly in ‘belgium’ + ‘the netherlands’*
.
(it gets its ‘name’ due to ‘suspended yeast’ and ‘wheat proteins which cause the beer to look hazy, or white, when cold.
It is a descendant from those medieval beers which were flavored and preserved with a blend of spices and other plants such as coriander, orange, and bitter orange referred to as “gruit” instead of using hops.
The style was revived by Pierre Celis at the Hoegaarden Brewery in Belgium and the Celis Brewery in Austin, Texas, and may also be made with raw wheat in addition to wheat malt.
The beers have a somewhat sour taste due to the presence of lactic acid or acetic acid, much more pronounced in the past than today.
.
(also, the ‘suspended yeast’ in the ‘beer’ causes some continuing fermentation in the bottle)
