A crisp, refreshing White IPA crafted with four varieties of hops, wheat, coriander, and a hint of orange peel.

For our unfiltered White IPA, we complimented the citrus hop character with wheat and a hint of orange peel. Then we dry-hopped it with Cascade, Citra, and Huell Melon hops for a bright hop aroma that creates a balanced IPA.

Review is from February 2, 2017.

Pours a familiar golden yellow color, but with a significant amount of haze, looks like they not only used oats and wheat, but also kept it unfiltered. Perhaps more taste will come of this turbid looking beer with 1/2" white head. The aroma didn't exactly pop hard for the Citra (or Huell Melon) hop. It was more citrus rind, more evocative of the Cascade hop moreso than Citra.

Anyways, the taste definitely was more bitter than regular blue moon, so it seems like the Simcoe is doing its thing beyond the Cascade bitterness. Even with the wheat and oat contribution to the body, it just seemed like it was an amped up bitterness kind of blue moon wit without doing much to push the flavor from the hops along. Like they went 97% bittering hops and sprinkled some Huell Melon and Citra along to simply mention they used those hops as a marketing angle. Didn't have any off flavors or reason to hate the beer, but its just like a triple bitterness Blue Moon OG beer at the end of the day.

I drank it at a bbq and just grabbed a bottle from the cooler, not sure if it was old. At first I thought it was a regular blue moon until i looked more closely at the bottle. Not terrible but pretty bland.
