Pours a golden color with a decent white head that disappears quickly. Looks like a flat Sun Drop. Not really anything on the nose maybe a little old grain. Kind of horrible in the mouth. Flat with a sickly honey flavor. Pretty nasty.

Honey is noticeable, though not overpowering; good for a party beer or a hot day, and also good for a night out at a steakhouse. Really liked this!

Aroma is not overly flattering but not terrible. Some citrus and honey notes, but they don’t meld too well. Color is pale lemonade yellow. The start is all malty and fruity. Some citrus zestiness and honey come through in the finish. Fairly refreshing and light bodied. I could see sipping on these on a hot day, but this isn’t a beer I’d break open for a special occasion.

Not too bad for a Blue Moon beer. Aroma was very weak. Could pick up some grain but very faint. Pour was a nice semi hazy gold with a one finger white head that left quickly. Taste was ok. Nice wheat beer taste with grains and and a sugary aftertaste. In hot weather outside would be the only time I would drink this.

Not too much here... aroma is pretty boring, slight citrus hint. Flavor is honey, orange, and a little spice, too. Nothing special. 12 oz. bottle.

12oz bottle; The alcohol percentage makes up for the sweetness of this beer. Pours a hazy light amber with a medium initial head that dissolves slowly. Honey and orange create a somewhat sour citrus finish.

poured pale golden as expected, clearer then expected though. wonderful aroma and palate of the spices mentioned. Very calm/balanced brew.
