Well...yes it is a hefeweizen to drink when no hefeweizen is available or you are just being cheap.

But still I dig it.

Blue Moon doesn't even try to be a Hefeweizen.  It's a Witbier :contract:  :nerd:

Have you ever tried Hoegaarden?  Much better than Blue Moon (which ain't bad for an American witbier).

I know the difference between witbier and hefeweizen, I just didn't realize Blue Moon is 'supposed' to be a witbier.

Both are top-fermented, unfiltered wheat beers, but Hefeweizen typically used to refer to the specific German style.  Blue Moon is a Witbier/"Belgian White".

I've tried Hoegaarden and Blue Moon. :o

You're presidential material!
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

IIRC the key difference with hefeweizen is the unique yeast used to brew it, similar to Belgian Lambic.

That, plus the other flavorings they use-- coriander, orange peel, etc. (all of which are verboten in German brewing).
