Blue Moon Belgian White

Inspired by Belgian-style wheat ales, Blue Moon is brewed with Valencia orange peel for a subtle sweetness and bright citrus aroma, while coriander adds a gentle spiced lift. It is traditionally served with an orange slice to heighten the citrus aroma and taste.

Why order it?

Choose Blue Moon if you want something softer and fruitier than a lager, but less bitter than a pale ale or IPA. It is a good choice for guests who enjoy citrus, gentle spice and a smooth wheat-beer texture rather than a sharp hoppy finish.

Taste profile

Expect a smooth Belgian-style wheat ale with soft haze, orange citrus, coriander spice and a rounded wheat-and-oat body. With an official IBU of 9, Blue Moon sits firmly on the low-bitterness side, making it bright, aromatic and easy to enjoy.

Hops, malt & IBU

Blue Moon publishes the key details for Belgian White, including 5.4% ABV and 9 IBU. The beer is known for Valencia orange peel and coriander, with a soft wheat-beer profile built around pale malt, white wheat and oats.

The exact hop varieties are not usually presented as named varieties for guests, so we describe the hop profile carefully rather than guessing. The main impression is citrus aroma, gentle spice, smooth body and low bitterness.

Food pairing idea

Blue Moon works well with lighter dishes and food with citrus-friendly flavours. Try it with seafood, grilled prawns, chicken dishes, Asian-style food, light cheese, deli boards or summer drinking in the beer garden — the orange and coriander notes keep the pint fresh and aromatic.
