Taste like a cheap generic beer with the addition of bit of banana flavor. What this creates in the end is one of the most displeasing beers of all time. AVOID!

Bottle Pours a clear gold with a white head. The head leaves quickly and produces almost no lacing. Aroma is of wheat and a touch of honey. Carbination is okay and the mouthfeel is beer but not much else. The flavor is lacking at best. This tastes like a macro pale lager. It is like a souped up Coors. No depth what so ever. The finish isn’t there. It is drinkable but nothing special.

~Pours a semi cloudy gold with foamy white head. ~Citrusy aroma with some honey and wheat. ~Wheaty flavor with generous amount of citrus, slight honey. ~Medium feel, soft with carbonation. Abrupt bitter finish. ~Good summer brew. Soft and enjoyable. The best of the Blue Moon seasonals.

Bottle in Spokane. Controlled head. Light maintained carbonation. Clear gold drink. Light clean clover honey scent. Flavour is not overpowering honey or sweet. Still cannot ignore the honey like a glove on the beer. The wheat is lost or severly muted. The orange peel is only noticed when looked for.

Piss yellow with a white head. Smells a lot like the heather ales from Williams Bros. Not a pleasant aroma, especially when linked to those awful beers. Tastes kind of like them too. Flavor is malty and honey while being slightly crackery on the finish. Could be refreshing I guess, but I think the regular blue moon is way better.

Reviewed 4/6/2009 (Bottle): Pours a semi cloudy clearish pale yellow color body, with a big white foamy head, diminishing. Very wheaty, malty aroma, some sweetness, a lot of honey. Very effervescent. Light tasting, flowery and some honey. Light sweet soft mouthfeel. Very drinkable. Some orange flavor too, maybe orange zest.

Pours pale gold into a shaker. Bright white head with little retention recedes to skim surface. Stale honey and wheat aromas. Sweet, crisp, honeyed wheat upfront turning to marshmallow and a dry, sour spice finish.

Bottle. Pours like a pale lager. Little to no lasting head. Almost non apparent lacing. Lacking the flavor that the bottle boasts. Have another? No thank you.
