Blue Moon Agave Nectar Ale

The Blue Moon Brewing Company is a Molson-Coors brand, based out of Golden, Colorado. This is a blonde wheat ale brewed with agave nectar (tequila is distilled from agave). It is 5.6% ABV and is a seasonal release.

The beer pours a light orange amber in color. There is a tall head of thick yet bubbly white foam. The aroma is toasted wheat, a bit of nuttiness, light honey sweetness, and some agave. The taste follows the aromas directly. It ends moderately dry, with just enough hops to cut the sweetness. The aftertaste is toasted malt. It is well carbonated, but also has a smooth roundness to it. Does Blue Moon can?  They should put this in cans for a summer beach beer.
