Tried it during the summer time. Was nothing to brag about. Just a mellow ale with some honey and spices to add to flavor and smoothness. This beer is too subtle and too watered down for my liking.

Pours golden with a small white head. Aroma is faint honey, wheat, and citrus. Flavor is very light wheat, and a bit of sweetness, not detecting any honey. Just a very light american style wheat.

12 oz. bottle- Pours a pale golden color, disappointing flavor, really little honey taste. I remember loving this beer, what happened, did Coors lighten the flavor to broaden to the mass public, very disappointing.

12 oz bottle. I usually think this is the best summer beer on the market. I’m usually impressed by the honey flavor. I can barely detect any this year, however. It seems as Blue Moon grows in popularity, their beers get more bland. It’s like Coors is sacrificing quality in order to pump out more product. I’ve thought the same thing about their fall pumpkin ale for years. Years ago, that beer had a strong pumpkin pie flavor. Now I can barely detect any. And so it is with Honey Moon now. It has just a hint of honey now. Pours almost no head; pale hazy golden hue. Tastes like an inoffensive, bland wheat ale.

Pours a pale gold color with thin white head. Aroma is of sweet honey, light spice and orange. Taste is honey sweet, sweet malt, jolly rancher candy and light wheat. This beer is kind of cloying and just a sweet mess. blech.

Liked it better than Blue Moon, but not as much as Full Moon. Nice honey flavor.
