Dirty Hoe: Hoegaarden + Guinness. See photo below.
I took another trip to The Auld Dubliner this past Sunday for a meal and a fresh beer. As I’ve mentioned before its never a disappointment. I was drinking my half and half and my wife wanted to try something new so she asked the bartender to surprise her with a drink. He brought over a Hoegaarden witch was very good, he told us that a Hoegaarden mixed with Guinness is called a “Dirty Hoe”, I had to have one. It was a really good blend looks and tastes great. Next time your at a Pub and they have these two beers try a Dirty Hoe.
