Pours from bottle gold an pretty clear. Not horrible, but not the best by any means. Good for a drinking to get drunk beer if you’re not a bud or miller fan..... which who is. Anyway, somewhat citrusy, hint of wheat. Ok. I may keep it in my fridge for the friends I have over that I don’t want to drink my good stuff.

Pours deep hazy gold into a tumbler. White head quickly recedes to hug rim leaving no lacing. Mild coriander and wheat aromas. Soft and medicinal. Lasting sour finish.

not great. i’m so sorry that this beer is like EVERYWHERE. worse than that, i’m sorry that everyone thinks this is fabulouser than miller lite or pabst, as if blue moon were the next logical progression up from domestic lagers. seriously, it’s not good.

Wouldn’t drink it without an orange. With the orange it is very refreshing and light bodied. Pours a light yellow.

With or without orange, no thanks. This was one of my earliest beers and I didn’t have a taste for it at the time.

I’m not going into details for an average beer. Let’s say this, if your trying to go half way cheap but still have an enjoyable drinking experience (that means 5-6 beers not a shit show), blue moon is a good way to go. It’s for sure a step up from the traditional trash beers like bud light, miller, etc... The ladies seem to love this one as well.

The pleasant aromas consist of citrus and a little wheat. This is slightly cloudy and golden in color. I can barely taste any spice in this beer. At least for a White. It tastes mildly sweet with a good citrus flavor. It’s light in body and seems a tiny bit watery to me, but not bad at all. This is a Belgian White for the non-adventurous IMO. I don’t mind drinking this at all, but it’s just a little generic for my taste.
