I just saw this in a store yesterday, but decided not to pick it up. Anyone tried it yet? I like how BMC beers always have to be the "official beer" of something.

I want to know who the hell appointed them the Official Beer of the New Years Eve Blue Moon"! NASA?

I saw the same thing in a store here in Indiana...BMC is in the Grand Cru business now...and at 9.99 a bottle...I can get way better Cru for a bit less or a tad bit more...Allagash comes to mind...Who knows...

This reeks of a gimick. I will wait for some reviews before shelling $10 for a BMC. Although, I will not rule out that it could be very good. I just find it unlikely.

I hear it is an uninspired Imperial white ale. Shocker.

 

[Boerderij_Kabouter]

That's what I thought. In other words, not worth 10 bones.

I heard it might be worth 5. haha.

I just picked up a bottle of it for my company holiday party/beer tasting tomorrow. It was requested by one of my staff... And I was definitely shocked by the $9.99 price tag, but it's the company's money so I didn't care

I'll post a few notes on it tomorrow. That is, if it ends up being worthy of tasting notes...

Ok, so I had the beer tasting yesterday and the general consensus on this was "Ehh... Not bad, definitely not great..." and when I told everyone how much it cost the opinion was, "Not worth the price"
