Blue Moon's Belgian White

Blue Moon Brewing Co.

I have mentioned before that I don't like American Wheats but with the rise of the traditional style brewing geniuses around, I may have to alter my blanket contempt. Blue Moon's Belgian White is a wonderful mass produced wheat. To me, wheats should stand on their own, no fruit necessary. That makes me a bit of a heathen, but I prefer the complexity that often is masked by the addition of citrus. I can taste the coriander and the orange peel in the brew sans the orange, thank you very much.

Give this one a try, I actually found it in Safeway so it makes it my cheap-and-easy-to-find list. There are better Belgian style wheats out there but this one is solid for the price.

Cheers,
Brother B

On my last trip to Bellingham, Brother Jim had a bottle or two of Blue Moon in his fridge. As you all know, I am not a Belgian Wheat guy, but hmmmmmmm, it was tasty, especially after a long drive to the Great North.
