Quick Facts: ABV: 0.45%  |  Origin: Denver, Colorado, USA  |  Style: Non-Alcoholic Belgian-Style Wheat  |  Brewery: Blue Moon Brewing Co. (Molson Coors)

Production & Heritage

Blue Moon Brewing Co. originated at the Sandlot Brewery inside Coors Field in Denver, Colorado, and operates as part of Tenth and Blake Beer Company, the craft and import division of Molson Coors. The non-alcoholic expression uses the same core ingredients as the flagship Belgian White — malted barley, wheat, oats, Valencia orange peel, coriander, hop extract, and natural flavors — then undergoes dealcoholization to reach 0.45% ABV. The inclusion of oats alongside wheat contributes to the smooth, creamy mouthfeel that distinguishes Blue Moon from thinner non-alcoholic lagers on the market.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Orange peel dominates the nose immediately, followed by a subtle floral lift from coriander. Underneath, light cereal grain and a faint honey-like sweetness round out the bouquet.

Taste: The entry is bright with moderately sweet orange citrus, noticeably more forward than in the alcoholic version. Mid-palate brings soft wheat malt sweetness with touches of vanilla and honey, while coriander adds a gentle spice that keeps the sweetness in check. Hop bitterness is almost nonexistent, leaning fully into the fruit-and-grain character.

Finish: Light, crisp, and refreshing with a clean exit. A lingering hint of orange zest fades quickly, leaving a smooth, slightly sweet aftertaste without any harsh or metallic off-notes common in some NA beers.

How to Drink Blue Moon NA

Serve chilled in a pint glass with an orange slice garnish, just as you would the original — the citrus wedge amplifies the Valencia orange peel already present in the brew. For a non-alcoholic cocktail twist, try a Blue Moon Shandy by mixing with fresh lemonade for an effervescent summer cooler; a Citrus Radler blending the beer with grapefruit juice for a tart, refreshing variation; or a Spiced Orange Spritz combining it with a splash of ginger beer and a cinnamon stick to highlight the coriander spice notes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Blue Moon NA taste like? Blue Moon Non-Alcoholic delivers a bright, sweet orange citrus flavor accented by coriander spice, soft wheat malt, and hints of vanilla and honey, with almost no hop bitterness. Reviewers consistently note it tastes brighter and slightly sweeter than the alcoholic original, without lingering bitterness.

How does Blue Moon NA compare to Allagash White? Allagash White is a full-strength craft witbier (around 5.2% ABV) widely regarded as one of the best American-made Belgian whites, with a drier, more complex yeast-driven profile. Blue Moon NA trades that alcoholic depth for accessibility at 0.45% ABV, leaning heavier on malt sweetness and orange peel brightness rather than yeast phenolics and dry spice.

Is Blue Moon NA good for beginners exploring non-alcoholic beer? Yes — its approachable sweetness, familiar brand identity, and minimal bitterness make it one of the most accessible entry points into the NA beer category, especially for drinkers who already enjoy wheat beers.

Where is Blue Moon NA made? Blue Moon Non-Alcoholic is produced by Blue Moon Brewing Co., which was founded at the Sandlot Brewery inside Coors Field in Denver, Colorado. The brand operates under the Tenth and Blake Beer Company division of Molson Coors.

What foods pair well with Blue Moon NA? Grilled shrimp tacos work well because the citrus in the beer echoes lime and cilantro garnishes. Light salads with vinaigrette complement the beer's bright acidity. Fish and chips benefit from the wheat body cutting through fried richness. Fresh fruit desserts like orange tarts mirror the Valencia orange peel character. Soft cheeses like brie or fresh mozzarella match the creamy, gentle mouthfeel without overpowering the beer's subtle spice.

What sizes does Blue Moon NA come in? Blue Moon Non-Alcoholic is commonly available in six-packs of 12 oz cans, which is the standard retail format.

Is Blue Moon NA worth the price? Blue Moon Non-Alcoholic positions as a mainstream NA wheat beer, priced competitively within the growing non-alcoholic segment. For drinkers seeking a recognizable Belgian-white flavor profile without alcohol, it delivers solid value relative to pricier craft NA options while offering more complexity than basic NA lagers.

Why Blue Moon NA?

As the first non-alcoholic wheat beer from a major American brewer, Blue Moon NA occupies a unique space in the NA market — it brought Belgian-style wheat character to a category previously dominated by light lagers and IPAs. The use of real Valencia orange peel and coriander, identical to the flagship recipe, gives it an authenticity that many NA beers brewed with artificial flavorings lack. At 80 calories and 0.45% ABV, it delivers a genuinely flavorful drinking experience without compromise on the wheat beer fundamentals. For anyone who has relied on Blue Moon as a go-to and wants to moderate their alcohol intake, this is the closest match to the original in the non-alcoholic space.
