Grainy, citrus aroma. Golden with frothy head...fairly carbonated. Honey, malts dominated flavours. Smooth, with dry finish.

The honey sweetness makes this brew much smoother to drink than most of the summer brews. It’s obvious honey and fruit flavors will make this the most flavorful beer at the barbecue.

FANTASTIC. I probably rate this beer higher than others being I enjoy a sweeter beer. Very smooth. The honey flavor reminds me of fresh honey off the comb. Definitely sense some clove and although brewed with orange peel, getting more of a peach taste as I also do with regular blue moon.

I enjoy regular blue moon much more. This is a very easy drinking honey lager but nothing like blue moon so I don’t know why it carries the name. You should be able to find a better honey lager without much effort.

This beer has been around for a while. Blue Moon has capitalized on the "label appeal" Unfortunately this beer falls short of the cooler case placement. It’s thin in taste with a tin-ish flavor. For the add’l 1.5-2 $$ you’d spend you might as well buy Sam Adams.

I’m a fan of their belgian white, so I thought this would be a nice summertime brew. It really seemed like coors with a little honey. Completely disappointed.

Pours golden w/ a full, semi spritzy froth. Hangtime is good reducing to a nice full lace. Aroma of honey and soft citrus malts. Light nectar w/ ample residual effers. A malty brew, crisp and refreshing. Posseses a defined honey essence w/ a mild squirt of perfume and orange fruit. The finish is brisk w/ a mild bittering unit.

A 12 oz bottle with drink by date on the bottle. The beer poured a hazie light golden brown color and a big foam head. The smell is of honey and malt. The taste is a good honey flavor with a mild orange taste. The carbonation was weak and no lacing but a good beer.
