Pours a golden yellowish brown with little white head. Flavor has an overpowering lime taste. Refreshing and drinkable, but I would like a little less lime and more flavor.

Pours a nice amber with a medium lasting head. Smell is mild, and sweet malty and some cardboard like hints as well. Taste is drinkable and decent. Some wheaty malt, somewhat stale-ish like with a smooth creamy medium body. Pretty easy drinking, and There is no Khaffir Lime in this as stated in the description. Maybe 1 leaf per batch...That stuff is pricey, Blue Moon is not...

12oz bottle poured into a weizen glass. BMRMSA pours copper-colored with a very large stark white head. The aroma has lime, green apple and wheat. The green apple is the "macro" smell that you find in, well, macro beers. This is a terrible example of a wheat beer but a drinkable social beer. The flavor has lime and a dusty field flavor like fruit tree leaves. There is a faint hint of something subtley sweet, maybe pear or cactus. The body is light and crisp. The after taste is light but consists of the same flavors as the main swallow. You could probably drink about 1000 of these at a party without ever knowing what you’re drinking. You’d stagger home and vomit all over the place from too much alcohol. It is very tame and does not stand out among the masses.

Pours dark golden with a thin light tan head. Aroma of mint, lime, citrus, pear, and sweet malt. Tastes of sweet malt, citrus, foamy malt. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with spritzy carbonation. Has an unclean sticky malt feeling. Not good.

Very light in taste, tastes more like a domestic beer than a craft beer, nice color and head. good for a spring beer

12 oz bottle: Aroma light wheat, tart, acidic, lemon and lime, very very slight cardboard aroma. Pours a clear golden with the slightest hint of amber and a small sized white head that diminishes into a soapy film. Taste is strange to say the least. Flavors are going all over the place, but not in the layered...mmmm, complex sort of way. In the undefined, random, and unbalanced way. Flavors have a slight acidity to it. A slight citrus not some apple, wheat and some other off flavors. Overall, It’s drinkable but nothing stellar to say the least.

pours a medium amber color with a medium tan head leaving no lacing.The aroma is lime and light wheat. the flavors are nothing special either, little bit of lime with some zesty wheat flavor. this is actually quite drinkable, but not memorable at all. Cheers!
