Looking for an extract kit

[RCR]

I am looking to brew an extract kit which has the taste similar to Blur Moon or shock top. Any suggestions>

This is the first Blue Moon clone recipe I brewed. Unfortunately it tasted better than Blue Moon.

Agreed on the recipe, but if you are looking to match Bluemoon’s flavor, then don’t use the yeast they recommend. Instead pick US-05. Blue Moon uses a clean American yeast, not a Belgian yeast and there should not be any yeast off-flavors.

oops- actually should have typed ‘yeast-derived’ flavors. My anti-Belgian yeast prejudice is showing.
But the statement still stands, based on the multi-page thread in the HBT forum by Wayne who was one of the brewers responsible for the development of Bluemoon back in the old days.
