Shock Top Belgian White

Bottle 35,5 cl. Hazy yellow with a dense white head. Aroma of oranges. Medium body, sweet orange flavours and a little sulphur. The finish is dry. 060709

Bottle. Nice aroma and a not unpleasant citrusy flavour. Not a really serious beer taste, and the orange gets away from itself a bit. Blue Moon is a better call IMO.

Draft at the brewery in St. Louis. I can’t believe it took so long for A-B’s answer to Blue Moon. Cloudy orange pour, quick head. Aroma of orange, and same flavor- but something isn’t quite right. Gets worse as you get through it. Weak finish- dry, grainy, and leftover orange flavorings.

The wife ordered this for me since I had never had it before. Mild wheat with a the citrus flavor. I think Blue Moon is slightly better, but they are both very similar.

As far as appearance and mouthfeel are concerned, this Belgian white has the basics down. However, very harsh citrusy carbonation bite and overall sweetish character render this beer relatively mediocre. Finishes rather poor.

Bottled. An unclear dark golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is hoppy, lending it citrus notes on a lightly malty and caramel finish. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, citrus, and some spices, leading to a dry wheaty finish.

Like a previous poster said, this is a mild, orangey wheat that compares favorably with Blue Moon. Not bad for an A-B effort.

Not too bad...better than Blue Moon. A little too citrusy for my tastes in a witbier, but for Michelob it isn’t too bad. Pours a hazy orange with an almost non-existent head with O.K. retention. If you like Blue Moon, then you will probably like this beer too.
