This beer is a hazy, amber/orange color, and has a healthy head. The beer doesn’t smell great. It has almost a skunky aroma. This beer has a floral taste to it. Lightly sweet, with a bit of a bitter aftertaste. You don’t see a lot of spring beers around, so I can’t realy make a comparison to a similar beer. This beer is passable, but not something I would want to drink on a regular basis.

Bottle from Canals. Copper pour with a spice and sour citrus aroma. Wheat is noticeable but it is too thin for my tastes. It was just below average.

not bad but not what I was expecting. Much like the pumpkin, this beer has a serious lack of flavor up front and makes me wonder did the take unfiltered coors light and let some limes sit in it for a day and try and pass it off as this??

It’s not bad. The lime is interersting the malt flavor is a little heavy to mix with the lightnesss of the lime not a whole lot of hop character. I would drink it again but it is sort of a strange mix between styles that leaves something to be desired.

Bottle. This is by far the worst Blue Moon offering. The hint of lime is gross. Would rather drink Coors Light.

Because I cannot bash on this line enough. Interesting addition of Kieffer lime. No one likes Coors.
