An excellent beer!! Hard to believe this is distributed by Coors. What I heard, the brewery that originally created Blue Moon was bought up by Coors but Coors left the brewmasters alone with their original recipe and let them keep creating this magnificent beer!

Bottle. Nice hazy golden pour with little lacing. Love the fact that this has become a staple in many bars, at least there is something better than the domestics. Excellent citrus aroma backed up with a nice taste.

Not a bad beer coming from Coors. I like the hint of orange. Goes great with an orange slice, much like a Corona and lime. Refreshing and not to heavy. Good beer overall.

Bills itself as a craft beer but its produced by Molson-Coors. Despite this it has a nice smooth taste with a hint of citrus. Cloudy-gold appearance with white head after the pour. Not a fan of fruit in my beer but its actually quite refreshing with a slice of orange. Well worth a try to any wheat beer drinker and a good one to introduce to your ’mainstream’ beer drinking friends.

Pours a nice, hazy amber, as a wheat beer should. Nice white fluffy head. Crisp, citrusy aroma. Taste has a nice balance of citrus and hop with a clean finish. Subtle lacing of the glass as it goes on. A great, every-day beer.

Bottle poured to glass. A moderatly well hopped brew that smelt of citrus and a slight yeasty sourdough smell. Hazy orangish,yellow brew with a creamy white head of 1 fingers width that disipates quickly. A wonderfully sweet initial flavor with a light acidic,bitter after taste of citrus fruits. A very well balance beer. I declinded the orange garnish b/c It is not beer. $ 3.25 @ The stones throw

I remember drinking this for the first time about 2001 with a big slice of orange when it was delicious and not corporate and overly popular. It pours a perfectly cloudy golden yellow color with a nice white head on top. It is an easy drinking simple wheat. It truly tastes much better with a slice of orange to bring out some of the flavors that the brewer intended to taste but don’t shine through as well.
