Commercial Description:
Blue Moon Honey Blonde Ale's deep golden color is the result of a brewing process that starts with Munich and caramel malts and Perle Hops, and finishes with clover honey to produce a brew that has a balanced taste and a sweet malt finish.

Smells alright. It does taste a little like honey. Like Blue Moon, but a better beer.

Light golden color with a large white head. Citrus in aromas. Sweet and heavier than the original Blue Moon. Otherwise pretty similar in profile.

Pale gold, dense white head. Aromas of orange, honey, wheat predominate. Fuller-bodied than expected, oily & viscous, bitter throughout, sour through the finish, finishes zestfully and long with sweet & sour sparring, honeyed flavor lingers. Nice.

I didn’t like this beer as much as the original blue moon whit beer. However, this is still decent. Poured a golden blond color with a white, one finger head. This is pretty decent swill for the price but I think one could do better.

Pours blonde, with some aroma of honey, malt, and slight hops. Finishes decent, with some sweet honey flavor mixed with some tart hoppy malt. OK.

I normally do not care for honey or blonde ales, but this was an exception. Delightfully tasteful, with a semi-sweet aftertaste. This is something I could drink again in the future.

Not as good as some Honey Ale’s. Sort of so-so.
