Tried near to a whole sixpack and was seriously underwhelmed. And I'm no big Moby fan either, but he's far from bland and characterless. “How about the doppelbock they released at Christmas?”

I would also point out that although I've become the Official Defender of Blue Moon it's not a beer I buy. I agree with <a href="http://lewbryson.blogspot.com/2008/02/miller-lite-brewers-collection-tasting.html" rel="nofollow">Lew Bryson</a> that the Blonde is the best of the lot. It's some fruit and spice character I don't remember in Leffe Blond (6.6% abv). That said, rather than having two Blondes at 4.2% and 110 calories I would go with one Duvel at 8.4%, I'm guessing 225 calories. Basically the same amount of alcohol intake (maybe a little less since it would be a 33cl of Duvel) and calories. Lot more flavor. Works for me. Peter,

What about the others? You didn’t exactly review the Lites when you wrote about them, but now it appears as if you didn’t like the Wheat.
