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!

I had tried this wheat beer once before and really didnt like it. Although I’m still not a huge fan of wheat beers, this one fared higher when I tried it again recently. I think that the spicy, citrusy flavor and medium body make this a refreshing brew. Not bitter or hoppy, it’s a well done yet simple wheat beer

Floating particles of various sizes. Flavor is not really sweet or bitter. Tastes of wheat, banana, coriander, spice, lemon, and bread. Medium body. Soft carbonation. Short, dry finish. Overall, and average wheat.

Pours a hazy golden color with a white fluffy head. Smells of wheat and grain. Easy drinking brew but not overly exciting. I wasnt expecting it to be. Tastes of a typical wheat beer, but lacked a little in flavor. Very light citrus, wheat, and grain. I could drink it while watching a little football.

Poured a cloudy brownish in color with a thin white head. Grainy malt aroma. Somewhat soapy flavor, mildly unpleasant ... otherwise malty with a slight citrusy tang. Slick, oily mouthfeel. Not a big fan of this one.

North Coast has to be one of my favorites. They consistently deliver good quality beers. This is my favorite wheat beer. It is a very smooth easy beer to drink.

In the bottle at the HyVee Oktoberfest beer tasting in Council Bluffs. Big sweet cotton candy aroma. Cloudy yellow with a white head. Citrus flavor. Doughy quick finish with a mild bitterness.

12 oz bottle. Poured very hefe weissen like, hazy straw-ish with thin bright white head. Aroma is light with faint wisps of sweet malt and maybe citrus hops. The flavor supports what my nose was just telling me with sweet pale to caramel type malts and a citrus hop flavor. Nice tasting warm weather-everyday kind of beer. Cool looking label design too.
