If you like pyramid try their hefeweizen. I've found most beer drinkers like that (or pretend to) when I bring it.

If you like Blue Moon, search for anything that's a Hefeweizen or Wheat Beer. Some more common ones: Pyramid, Leinenkugel, Hoegaarden.

A distinctive ingredient in Blue Moon is Coriander. Blue Moon is a Wit style beer which traditionally uses a combinatin of bitter orange, Coriander and Wheat to achieve a berry-like flavor.

I've done a couple and prefer a sweet orange, lots of coriander and low hops. It's actually the only wheat beer I can stand.

Too bad its out of season, but Sam Adams Summer Ale is another excellent example along the same lines.

But its moving into fall, look at some of the excellent Oktober Fest beers.

Their apricot one is definitely nice. It's definitely something to go with if you're not a huge beer drinker either. I usually pick pyramid or Gordon Biersch to bring and I havent seen anyone dislike it. Apricot usually runs out too when I bring it.

OP: Try some Franziskaner

Why lol?
It is good beer.

I don't really like hefeweizen so I didn't suggest any.

I think that's the lol, I'm not sure he'd be down with a stout if the first one he's ever liked was Blue Moon :p

Although I would consider it a "beginner beer," I wouldnt say its disgusting.
