Blue Moon is obviously becoming very popular out there and Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat is also a tasty treat, but we feel like they just don't have the harmony of the Hoegaarden. Right now we'd go 1) Hoegaarden, 2) Blue Moon, 3) Sunset Wheat. If you want to throw Shock Top in that fray it's probably sitting at number 4 right now. Of course this ranking doesn't factor in price, which is going to ding Hoegaarden compared to all the others.

I find it rather easily in most stores and a lot of pubs have it on tap. Luckily around $4 or $5. Hoegaarden is becoming very popular here in the States.

Hoegaarden is probably the most popular (and most available) white beer in the UK, but recently InBev have brought out 'Peeterman' - at 4% ABV a slightly lighter, filtered wheat beer. 'Peeterman' is being brewed in Leuven and marketed as a member of the 'Artois' family. As such it's probably more accessible that Hoegaarden, some drinkers are put off by Hoegaarden's cloudiness.
