Pours from the 12 oz. bottle a golden color with a large fluffy white head which settles some but is retained as a half finger head. Very active carbonation, this is on the verge of "fizzy" Aroma is of citrus & spice. 1st sip is sweet, the honey jumps out right away with the citrus (orange) riding its coattails. The after taste is of slightly bitter orange peel with a hint of peppery spice. Mouthfeel is smooth, crisp, & refreshing, and I could easily see sessioning quite a few of these on a hot summer day. This is a nice, refreshing summer ale, one that would make a great complement to food fresh off the grill at a backyard cookout. Nice stuff!!!

An easy drinking Summer Ale, with a hint on Honey and Orange. Weaker than I expected. Wouldn’t recommend it to friends.

Bottle. Poured lager yellow with thin white head. Slight aroma of citrus. Flavour is mostly honey with a slight orange tinge. Sweet honey finish. Unremarkable.

I had this beer with jayson2425 after a night of working out in the garage. Not too bad of a brew. Nice and refreshing. Crisp with a slight honey taste. I like the Blue Moon winter brew better.

Bottled - This beer has a good concept but I think it needs a little more planning. Very sweet honey after taste after it goes down. When paired with an orange it is actually quite decent. Re-rate- After more careful consumption I have come to the conclusion that I actually really like this beer. Nice smooth taste!

I can not believe this is made by the same guys who unleashed Blue Moon on the world, this is a far superior product, the clover honey really makes it refreshing.

Very yellow in color with white head. Smell of honey and citrus and some wheat. Flavor is exactly how it smells. Not really anything to get excited about.

Bottle. Slightly hazy golden-yellow color with a white head. Aroma of honey and wheat. Flavor more of the same with honey sweetness and slight citrus. Fairly light on the palate, drinkable. Nothing special, but not terrible for a hot summer day.
