Jun 8, 2008 12 oz bottle. So I guess this is what the masses think a craft beer is, sad really. This beer was drinkable but far from good. Super creamy mouthfell full mouthfeel that goes against their claim of "crisp refreshing ale". Aroma and flavor both seemed to be trying to be to complex with the honey and orange peel not meshing but more like a battle royale in a bottle. Ah it’s a rating but I feel like I sold my soul to go up one tick.

Jun 7, 2008 The appearance is a very light amber, fairly clear. The aroma is very strong, and pretty much wheaty. The flavor hits you right away; while this isn’t the most wheat-like beer out there, there’s definitely no mistaking it. Also, unlike many beers that play up the honey in them, this time it’s actually possible to taste the honey (although it isn’t cloying). This may also be what helps make this beer pretty smooth. Definitely a good American-style wheat beer (also, IMO this may be a good beer for someone just learning to like beer);

Jun 7, 2008 This beer falls flat on the senses as far as wheat beers go. Did not provide that hearty yet smooth wheat beer taste that I would have expected as aminimum

Jun 4, 2008 On tap at the Hopyard, I was surprised how smooth this was. The honey was the most prominent influence in the nose and the flavor. This is obviously a low rated beer, but I admit I would drink it again.

Jun 4, 2008 Pours like a hazy bud light... Aroma is honeyed wheat malt, imagine that. I do find that it is a bit better than standard issue blue moon, only because it is a little less boring. Nice honey notes in this one, but still at the base it tastes like skunky macrobrew. Not something I would get regularly, this one was given to me.

Jun 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours a hazzy, cloudy yellow, with an thin, rapidly fading head. There is a slight honey/citrusy note to the aroma, with the standard bready wheat note. The flavor is slightly sweet, slightly citrusy. It has a thin body that one becomes accustomed too with Blue Moon products. The finish is a little tangy.

Jun 2, 2008 Pour a light yellow, slightly cloudy, with a slight honey and orange aroma. A little sweet, a little bready, and a slight spicy orange kick. Possibly a little watery. I can understand that a light, slightly sweet beer may not have a lot of fans on this site, but I found it to be a decent summer thirst quenching beer. Would go well with spicy foods.
