Not as good as blue moon. Wheat beer. Personally the taste is odd. Dry. Still a decent beer but could be better.

Pours a yellow color with a medium head that quickly goes away. Lacing. Tastes like a sweet wheat beer. Didn’t really taste the orange peel. the honey is there though.

Bottle. Light honey color. Medium white fizzy head that dissapaites quickly. Fresh floral aroma. Very mild honey flavor as it warms. Crisp and clean feel. Overall a pleasant and drinkable beer, but very average. Not as good as the flagship Blue Moon.

This beer is decent. Basically tastes like Blue Moon but with a slight sweetness from the honey and hints of citrus. I would definitely take the original with a fresh orange peel over this though.

This isn’t a bad beer by any means. It’s just kinda unexciting. It’s a touch bland, none of the flavors get up and do anything special. Pours golden, no head, nonexistent lacing. Medium mouthfeel. The honey taste is really subtle, I could use more of that. I could use more flavor period. It’s drinkable, but not something I’m going to find myself coming back to.

Typical wheat but maybe a little sweeter than others. Light yellow pour with a very light body. Honey is hidden.

Bottle - pours light golden yellow, I can barely pick up honey on the nose. I was expecting more honey in the taste. This almost tastes like an ordinary light beer. Easy to drink, carbonated finish. Not terrible, but not impressive either.

Pours a golden cloudy color. Tate is average for a wheat ale. Would pass on this one next time. 12 oz. bottle.
