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!

This beer is on tap at the Mellow Mushroom in Chapel Hill, NC. I had split a couple of pitchers already... so I was in no real shape to rate this beer. I’ll come back to it though.

From the bottle this pours a hazy yellow golden with a white head. Very citrusy aroma with a fair amount of wheat and a touch of sweetness. This still tasted a bit watery to me, but very drinkable with a good wheat addition and a hint of lemon in the hop finish.

Large white head on a dark yellow body. Aroma of ginger and lemon. Lightly swet start to finish. The lively carbonation is conbined with a watery light body. Give me a German Wheat beer any day.

Hazy yellow, white head. Fairly wheaty but not really all that aromatic or flavorful. A little citrusy as well. Light to medium bodied, fairly refreshing. Kinda boring. Meh.

Bottle. Pours yellow-golden and slightly hazy with a large white head that quickly dissipates to a thin film of bubbles. Aroma is dry, wheaty, hoppy, slightly sour with a bit of yeast. Flavor is good, wheat, lemon, herbs and pepper in the finish. Body is light and highly carbonated - quite crisp and refreshing. A thirst quenching beer though not a great beer.

Pours a hazy yellow color. Aroma is wheaty and a little sour. Flavor is wheat, lemon peel, and a little spice. A little bit of an off bitter like flavor. Not the best offering from North Coast.

Not much aroma but enjoyed the fizz, the cloudy yeasty character, mildly tasty dregs. More hoppy and lemon-oil-ish, not a strong wheat taste. A fair beer, wouldn’t spend a lot for it but a good thirst-quencher.

12 oz bottle: slightly golden haze, white head that reduces into a thin edge. Musty, sour fruit aroma with some wheat bits as well as malt and a tad bit of plastic. Heavily carbonated palate with a bit of leather, wet grain, lemon flesh and wheat. Really nothing spectacular, but nicely drinkable no less.
