#14 Rising Moon Spring Ale (US Import) One of the Blue Moon wheat ale seasonal brews. I missed the inter one but having a beer hiatus the past couple weeks I wanted something that would go down nice. Pours a nice bright golden color. Larger than average off white head. Per the label this is an Amber Wheat Ale with Kieffer Lime and Lime Peel. You definitely notice the lime in the aroma. Amazingly smooth to drink, its like they took a regular Blue Moon and made it smoother. Little to no aftertaste.
Four stars
Blue Moon is making me a fan of wheat ales, anyone have a recommendation for another brand to try?
I'm revising my rating on that "Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale" I made back on 1/26. The more times I had this beer, the more the bourbon taste became overpowering. Now if you're a whiskey or bourbon fan, you may like this. I am not a whiskey or bourbon fan, kind of ironic since I live within an afternoon drive of almost every bourbon distillery in the world. I'm a good 20 minute drive through town to Bourbon County, Kentucky. Anyways, I give it a 1 now. What was I thinking back then?
