A one-sentence review of Blue Moon Iced Coffee Blonde. Hits a delicate balance of a deep porter-like finish with the bright, citrusy notes typical of Blue Moon’s regular wheat ale. Very happy I picked one up with my mix-a-six today. Wish I would have gotten two.

I really dig the PO-20 arcade. It’s got those fun 8-bit bleeps and bloops and features a chord progression engine. Check […]
