This beer is decent. Basically tastes like Blue Moon but with a slight sweetness from the honey and hints of citrus. I would definitely take the original with a fresh orange peel over this though.

This isn’t a bad beer by any means. It’s just kinda unexciting. It’s a touch bland, none of the flavors get up and do anything special. Pours golden, no head, nonexistent lacing. Medium mouthfeel. The honey taste is really subtle, I could use more of that. I could use more flavor period. It’s drinkable, but not something I’m going to find myself coming back to.

Typical wheat but maybe a little sweeter than others. Light yellow pour with a very light body. Honey is hidden.

Bottle - pours light golden yellow, I can barely pick up honey on the nose. I was expecting more honey in the taste. This almost tastes like an ordinary light beer. Easy to drink, carbonated finish. Not terrible, but not impressive either.

Pours a golden cloudy color. Tate is average for a wheat ale. Would pass on this one next time. 12 oz. bottle.

Pours a clear golden honey color. Very distinct hints of honey and orange peel in its taste. An extremely simple summer ale, okay to drink on a hot day.

Draft. I’ve never liked honey in my beer and this beer is no exception. The combination of the malt and honey makes this taste more like a cough drop than a beer.
