Bottle. Pours hazy golden with some suspended particles and dense, moderate white head. Aroma of grainy wheat and light doughy yeast. Flavor is textured grains, some raw nearly-adjunct grain flavors distract a bit, mild orange peel, citrus, vanilla and very subtle bitterness. Creamy, lively mouthfeel with a moderately full consistency.

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.

Blue Moon is actually a good beer...very good in fact when you consider that it’s brewed by Coors. Citrus-y flavor with little bitterness. Great with dinner or on a hot day. This is the one I recommend to less experienced beer drinkers, and also a good choice for more mature ones as well. This is the one...the American macro that is actually a high quality brew!

Pours a dense light golden, almost orange color, with slowly disappearing, thin, creamy, white head. A clean taste with a hint of orange/citrus flavor to it. A sweet, easy beer to drink and available many places.

I was expecting some nasty off flavors and really thin body, but what i got wasn’t that bad at all. Really ugly, but the flavor had some spice and citrus in there and a pleasant sweetness. Nothing exciting but I would definitely take it over amber bock, negra modelo, newcastle, and its other macro peers.
