Not bad, but nothing special. I was expecting something a little more wheaty and I never found the "honey" mentioned in the name. Some citrus is apparent. Medium weight beer with sediment. Ok, but I’ve still yet to find anything made by Coor sunder the "moon" line that equals Blue Moon.

bottled at Dubliner Pub in Omaha, NE. Dark golden color, very smooth head, sweet aroma, notes of honey and sugar. Flavor is sweet like the aroma, but getting citrus. mouthfeel is good.

Deep golden color......somewhat hazy. Fluffy head, though it fades a little quick for a wheat. Faint hints of a sweet malt aroma. Slightly sweet honey flavor in the front......very crisp mouthfeel. Back is sweet, yet not overpowering......finishes dry. Good flavor, though greatly overshadowed by the dry, almost overly crisp mouthfeel.

A great summer ale. Light taste with a hint of honey and superb drinkability. Great with a light cigar. Not an evening or or dessert beer.

Poured a clear yellow color with a thick white head which had great retention. Aroma was a bit of a disappointment no real honey note, just a one-sided wheat note. Flavor on the other hand had a mild yet well paired honey and a bread malt character. No real citrus note though. A light crisp finish.

I had this in a bottle - it has a yellow color with a large white head. The palate is lacking but the aroma and flavor are nice malt. Light on the honey which is good because I can’t stand too much honey. Overall not too bad - Best Coors beer I have tried.
