Sunday Night Suds - Blue Moon Moon Haze


This week's Sunday Night Suds looks at Blue Moon's Moon Haze Pale Ale.

This is the second new beer introduced by Blue Moon this year (the other being the Honey Daze, reviewed here - https://kosherbeers.blogspot.com/2021/06/sunday-night-suds-blue-moon-honey-daze.html).

This beer represents an interesting move for Blue Moon as all of their beers that I can recall trying are variations on a wheat beer and this is a Pale Ale. That's not to say that there is no similarity in the flavor to the flagship Blue Moon Wheat Beer as the addition of the dried oranges to the brew process evokes some thoughts of the original Blue Moon.

Having said that, this beer is not just a Pale Ale with orange flavoring. There is some bitterness and pine which gives the beer a nice bite. There is also good carbonation and foam which smells sweet, but has the right amount of bitter in it as well. Although the beer is 5.7% abv, the alcohol flavor is not very prominent and overall the beer is well balanced.

This beer is available in six and twelve packs (cans only) and has not yet been included in any Blue Moon variety pack. If you like fruit, hazy pale ales, I would recommend picking up a six or twelve pack of this brew.

Blue Moon Moon Haze 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/306/567036.

As always, please remember to drink responsibly and to never waste good beer unless there is no designated driver.
