Commercial Description:
Malted wheat and the choicest American barley are combined with a blend of noble hops to create this light, fruity, refreshing beer. Brewed in the style of the American beer renaissance, Blue Star is unfiltered, the yeast adding a complex note to the flavor profile. It's especially good with a slice of lemon!

Decent made wheat. Because it is an ale style wheat, it was ok that it was thinner bodied, a little light, and a little fruity. It is balanced, but not too complex. Straightforward.

(Bottle) Hazy, very little head. Very light for a wheat beer, lemony and fruity, with a hint of yeastiness. Crisp without being sharp, and extremely refreshing and thirst-quenching, unlike most wheat beers. Although this is altogether a very thin and weak beer, the thinnest and weakest wheat beer I’ve ever tried, I actually still like it. It has no unpleasant sourness whatsoever.

Bottle. Pours golden orange with a dense white head. Lemon wheat aroma, medium-light body and carbonation. The taste has some peach, but is otherwise sort of unremarkable. Dry peachy finish.

12-oz. Gorgeous. But insubstantial. Cloudy coppery golden light amber with a towering and quickly dissipating platinum blonde head. Not much lace. Nice light sour wheat aroma. Body’s approaching the light side of medium, but still a bit below that mark. Plenty of tightly fizzing carb. Bits of funk here and there start to show up on the nose as it warms. Not much happening on the mid-palate; some sour and some very subdued stale wool. No finish. Pretty blah.

Tasted sweet, very wheatish. It’s pleasant and went well with my pizza. I was drinking it when buzzed, so that kinda made it taste better than it might. Hmmm....maybe I should try it again.

Hazy golden on color. A fair amount of yeast in this beer. Some nice light cherry and peach. Not bad.

Pours cloudy yellow-gold with a scattered white head. Aroma is a sweet and sour and a hint of citrus notes. Flavor is balanced and bready with just a hint of grassy wheat, plum and bubble gum. Light/Medium-bodied and medium carbonation. Abrupt finish.
