Brewed with Cascade Hops, Orange Peel and Hibiscus. What is a Coors without orange peel?.. not a Blue Moon, I say. Orange copper color. White foamy head. Aroma of juicy oranges, and citrus hops. It is a surprisingly nice combination. Flavor is a pale malt, some caramel, light citrus, some orange zest. Not to balanced, still better than the rest of the series. Overall, I don’t think I’d offer this to any guest at my house. Rating #1925 kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

There just isn’t too much going on in this brew. Leave it on the shelf. tokyogoat (543), San Diego, California, USA

Poured into a pint glass.
Light rust colored with a fizzy thin head.
Head falls quick, no lacing.
Smells slightly of a spicy yeast, green apple, and wet dog.
Taste isnt terrible at first, a little spicy, a little sour, but then is tastes like a BMC pils. Body is thin and tastes like corn mash.
Overall, not as bad as I imagined, but pretty terrible.
On the plus side, I could drink this all day long. Ryan82SM (260), Louisville, Kentucky, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Apr 24, 2009 Blue Moon aroma, but with a hop presence. Dark copper color with fluffy head. Hops are more plentiful than expected, though I must say I didn’t expect much. The rest of the flavor resembles a sweet Blue Moon. Palate is lively, but abrupt.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 12, 2009 12oz bottle. Filtered amber-orange color. Overly sweet one dimensional aroma, not pleasant. Medium bodied with a decidely sweet yeasty fruitiness. A Belgian Pale Ale? No way, lacks any crispness. More like a Singel if anything. Shows some spice as it warms. Surprisingly not bad for a Blue Moon product, but embarrassingly bad for something claiming to be Belgian.
