Sunday Night Suds - Blue Moon Honey Daze

 

This week's Sunday Night Suds looks at Blue Moon Honey Daze.

I first encountered this beer shortly after Pesach and was confused by what seemed like another iteration of my all time favorite Blue Moon product - the Honey Moon (reviewed all the way back in 2008 - https://kosherbeers.blogspot.com/2008/05/sunday-night-suds-blue-moon-honey-moon.html). Over the last dozen or so years this beer has been in and out of production and has been reintroduced as Blue Moon Honey Wheat, but this seemed different, mostly because it claimed to be lower alcohol.

I then went to the Blue Moon website which did not even mention the Honey Daze, so I filled out the form on the website for questions ... and got an email back confirming that the Honey Daze is not the Honey Moon (or Honey Wheat). They did not bother to explain why the Honey Daze was not listed as one of their beers on their website, but I guess that they don't expect people to use the site.

But back to the Blue Moon Honey Daze, this beer is light on calories (114) and only 3.9% abv, but its not light on taste. I tried this beer by itself and with salads and sweet chicken dishes and it was equally enjoyable. The young Rabbinical Scholar also very much enjoyed this beer and I have sent quite a few for him to enjoy.

This beer is available in six packs and in the summer mix box which includes the regular Blue Moon and the Mango Wheat. I have not seen it in bottles, so if you don't open cans on Shabbos you will need to have this during the week.

Blue Moon Light Sky is certified kosher by the Orthodox Union, as is every other current variety of beer produced by Blue Moon. For the experts take on this beer, please click here beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/306/541051.
