Blue Moon Belgian Style White/Wheat ale — 

Over the years, I have grown to love several drinks--a strawberry daiquiri with friends on a hot day, a vodka cranberry at a fun bar, a great glass of bordeaux at a nice restaurant--but for a long time, I just could not bring myself to like beer. I didn't like the taste and I really didn't like the calories that came along with it. I figured, why try to force myself to like something that could make me gain a ton of weight? After years of refusing any and all types of beer, I finally let one of my friends persuade me into trying Blue Moon. Expecting the worst, I was definitely pleasantly surprised.

Blue Moon is really light and has a very refreshing citrus taste which is niceley complemented by the orange slice that the beer is usually served with. Many of my friends agree that if you would like to become more of a beer drinker, Blue Moon is the place to start. It's also typically pretty cheap, which is great for my depleted student budget. Apparently bottled Blue Moon is not very good, but I've never had a problem getting it on draft. It's really nice to be able to go into a bar now and know there's a beer that I can enjoy. Cheers!
