pours a slightly cloudy light yellow. Large white head. A sweet initial flavor with a crisp citrus finish.

Nice aroma. Minimal flavor. Soft on the palate. A little sweet. Definitely a summer thirst quencher, and not much more. Probably would not buy again.

Bottle from PC Market of Choice in Ashland, OR. I liked the mild taste of this one. It meshed well between the wheat and honey flavors. Also, while you’re camping, it’s a great summer brew.

cloudy appearance since it’s unfiltered. I really loved the fact that the hOney was subtle and not over stated like JW Dundees honey brown. just enough honey to pull me in. I’m a huge fan of unfiltered beer so I’m biased here. this is a summer staple of mine

Hazy amber with modest head. Fair amount of lacing. Taste is bready, clean, somewhat crisp like a good apple. Slight orange flavor. Would be a good beer for those who don’t appreciate beer much. Very enjoyable for what it is. The balance of flavors and carbonation are very well done.

Pours with thick head settling to a nice layer. Color is cloudy yellow. Feels medium bodied. Taste is barley hopped with mild honey. Pretty tastless acutally. I guess I expected more...

Wasn’t too impressed with this one. The honey flavor didn’t really come through well. It just tasted like a cheaper blue moon.

Cloudy light yellow color small quick dissolve head and lots of small carbonation bubbles. Light honey and a bready wheat smell. No hop aroma, rather a sugary finish. Honey flavor that tastes phoney or artificial and a rather tame wheat experience. Palate is quenching and mild. One of the more forgettable of blue moones seasonal flavor blends.
