Blue Moon Grand Cru
Poured from a bomber into a pint glass. A- Pours a very cloudy...pale yellow/orange tint with a one finger sharp white head. It looks like really watered down orange juice. Not too appetizing. S- Overwhelming smell of orange peel. Its a nice smell and all, but thats all I'm getting. Really doesn't wet my palate too much, because it smells like the rind, not the juicy goodness... T- Lemon and orange peel. Thats really all that I'm getting...maybe a hint of coriander. Regardless, it seems like the beer is trying way too hard to be craft...and is just tasting like something you could make with no alcohol after a trip to the grocery store. M- Heavily carbonated, as you'd expect from a macro brew. The godforsaken orange peel gets more and more bitter the more you drink it, and turns to "overbearing" from "refreshing" pretty quickly. D- I don't like this. Its like regular Blue Moon, but with more flavoring in it. I think I actually like the regular version more, because you don't get beaten over the head with the same mediocre flavors over and over again.
