I love to try new beers, but Blue Moon Grand Cru is a complete waste of money. I purchased a bottle to share with musicbyoscar (we both enjoy Belgian beers

It's weird. I used to like Blue Moon. I haven't bought one in ages, particularly now that Oscar and I are homebrewing, but I had hoped that it was worth trying. Whatever hops or hop extract they're using, it must be the cheapest thing going if you can taste the acidity without getting much of the bitter. Oh well... I leaned a $10 lesson.
So far we've done Pale Ales, IPAs, an ESB, an Oktoberfest, Imperial Stouts, Blueberry Wits, Holiday Spiced Ale, and a Yuengling-style lager. I think there was also a regular Wit beer and an Amber or Irish Red Ale in there, but I forget the exact styles. We've been brewing extract style beers up to now, but for Christmas I'm buying Oscar the equipment to allow us to swap to all grain recipes. (not a secret, so it's okay for me to tell you that on my LJ.)
