Blue Moon Belgian White (Coors)

This Belgian-style wheat ale used to be a go-to standard for me when a bar didn't have Guinness on tap. I used this beer in my turkey brine last Nov. It's no Paulaner, but it is a decent wheat.

General Thoughts

Look and Smell: Foamy white head dissipated quickly. It's a cloudy orange-tinted gold. You get a wheat and orange peel smell.

Taste: You get the strong wheat first thing with the orange citrus taste. It isn't as smooth as other wheat beers, but it's still drinkable. The aftertaste lingers a little. It's a standard wheat. Better than some, and not as good as others. And yes, when I get an orange in it at a bar...I eat the beer-soaked orange.

From the Blue Moon site:
Unfiltered for more depth of flavor and a unique, cloudy appearance.

Ingredients white wheat, oats, coriander, orange peel.

• Full flavor with a smooth finish.
• Light, spice citrus flavors go great with chicken, seafood and pork.

Best when garnished with a slice of orange to bring out the natural spices and subtle fruit flavor.
