Blue Moon Valencia Amber Ale

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 5 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 5

Aroma is wheaty with a hint of citrus, not strong. Pours a nice clear amber with a decent white head. Flavor is rather wan, wheaty with a snip of orange, but nothing special. Texture is a bit on the thin side, only average fizz at best. Gimme a REAL craft beer, bitte, s'il vous plait, por favor. I'll finish this one only to take the edge off a headache.

12oz bottle -

Part of the mixed 12pack. Very plain, rather underwhelming. Nothing overtly wrong with the beer, but nothing right either. Thin, watery, slightly soapy. Tasted like watered down regular Blue Moon.

As many others have said, where is the orange? Definitely lacking in that regard. This is really a plain, bland beer--nothing offensive but just lacking in any real aroma or flavor.

Not getting a while lot of orange or caramel. Even for a Blue Moon, kinda boring as at least the others have a bit of their own identity. Nothing off, but very very generic.

Pours burnt amber with a thin ringed head and minimal lacing. Aroma has a hint of orange that accents an otherwise indefinable musk. The initial sip is a tame caramel malt flavor. The whole thing falls apart on the back end though, where the palate is flooded with the taste of stale wheat. The body is also a little watered down.

A nice orange-amber colored beer with a three finger frothy textured, white head rising above. There was some hang time in that head. Settled into a nice ringlet. A grainy-citric nose. Interesting wheat, honey tasting. As I said, interesting. Light bodied.

I could be a little generous here on the ratings, but did not find this that bad. Pretty much average though at best for the style....refreshing if very cold. The wheaty-slighty hoppy finish (with mild citrus ending) is the feature here. Balance is actually ok. Reminds me of their honey wheat brews with citrus added. This was the new one that I wanted to try, but glad that I only sampled a single first before going through the 12-pack variety mix.

Part of the new spring seasonal 12-pack. Orange? Nope. Not a hint in the aroma or flavor which with a name like "Valencia" it better be orange to the hilt. Yeasty aroma, non-existent head, looks like fruit punch. Thin. Flavor was light wheat... and not much else.
