Blue Moon® Belgian White* was our first year-round release back in 1995. It started with our brewmaster, Keith Villa, wanting to craft a beer inspired by the flavorful Belgian Wits he enjoyed while studying brewing in Belgium. He brewed his interpretation using Valencia orange peel versus the traditional tart Curaçao orange peel, for a subtle sweetness, and added a touch of coriander to provide balance. Then he added oats and wheat to create a smooth, creamy finish that’s inviting to the palate. As a final touch, he garnished the beer with an orange slice to heighten the citrus aroma and taste. Its natural unfiltered appearance adds to the depth of flavors in Belgian White*.



Hard to believe that it's been 20 years since that first spring day back in 1995. We've brewed a lot of beer since then (3,269 batches, according to the logbook), and our brewmasters are always excited to experiment with new beers for our fans. You just never know what will come next from the Blue Moon Brewing Company®.
