I tried one or two earlier on, but I've switched over to a witbier recipe instead when going for that style. I find it cleaner and a bit dryer than Blue Moon, but just as crowd pleasing.

Brewing Classic Styles has a great base recipe to start with if you want to go that route.

So you reckon start with a witbier and go from there?
I'll look into it.
Cheers.
