Tasting - Blue Moon First Peach Ale

Name: Blue Moon First Peach Ale
Variety: Ale
Region: Colorado
Country: USA
Year: 2015
Price: $8 / 6 pack

Brewery Review: With one foot in winter and the other in spring, we crafted this Belgian-inspired Brown Ale with the first peaches of the season and coriander. It has a tart taste balanced by caramel malts for the cooler days and peach notes for the warmer ones.

My Review: The first smell was pretty hoppy. Not the typical orangish smell associated with Blue Moon. The color was also a different color, close to red-orange or pink. A lot different than the brilliant orange color with a normal Blue Moon. The taste was as described. It was a bit hoppy but the peach taste definitely came through in earnest. It was actually very delicious to drink. I'll definitely be disappointed when this one goes away.
