| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 13, 2008 I can’t believe people equate Blue Moon with a beer like this. A refreshing summer wit that tastes a little spicy in the middle. A nice clean finish. Berserkir (38), New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 7, 2008 Bottle pour. Cloudy golden yellow with a light white head. Aroma is very light citrus and wheat, a hint of banana. Flavor is sweet, slight acidic bite, with hints of citrus, banana, and cloves. Highly carbonated, finishes very clean with just a hint of acidic citrus. stubby (326), Santee, California, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 9/20 | Oct 6, 2008 I like wit but this was either too old and lost its character or it was just a little light on the orange and coriander. I am used to drinking them fresh homebrewed so I suspect it was half a year old or more. A boring lightly spiced wheat beer. No Belgian yeast character whatsoever.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 5, 2008 Bottle pours a cloudy straw color with a medium size, well lacing, white head. Aroma is light citrus, wheat, and banana. Taste is slightly sweet with light acidic notes of lemon & orange zests, hints of clove, coriander, and wheat. All of which are very light and complementary. Lively carbonation and very clean finish. alexanderj (2280), Chino Hills, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 4, 2008 Bottle courtesy of golubj; poured a cloudy yellow color with a short lasting white head. Aroma of wheat, straw/earth, banana, with only the slightest hint of spice. Probably more spice than most in the flavor. Lacked alot of great wheat flavor; not much banana. Pretty dry flavor.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 2, 2008 I actually thought this was a lot better beer than the ratings here show. It isn’t anything special as far as a 20th Anniversary special release is concerned, but it is a good beer. Pours a hazy gold (actually one of the lighter beers I have drank in a while). Thin white head. Nice wheat, lemon, orange flavor and aroma. I could actually see drinking this a lot on a warm summer day. Unfortunately, I live in Illinois and I won’t see those for a long time now.
