not bad but its got a weird taste to it. the only part thats good is the honey finish that it gives. i drank it once or twice this summer but i probably wouldnt spent to much more time on it.

My friends enjoyed this, I did not. Small, fizzy, white head. Body is a sparkling, chill hazed yellow. Aroma of honey, wheat, and wet dog. Taste of sweet water, if I push myself I can find some cinnamon. Dry mouthfeel fizzy carbonation.

12oz bottle served in a shaker. Lightly hazed golden pour with a thin head of off-white foam that quickly disappeared. Minimal, spotty lace. The aroma had wheat, sweet honey, and light citrus. Slightly metallic. The flavor was much the same. Lightly toasted wheat with some more pronounced honey. Sweet but drinkable. Light-bodied. Moderate, crisp carbonation. A mediocre American wheat masked by honey sweetness.

(From a bottle) Golden color, okay head that doesn’t last. A bit on the fizzy side with light mouthfeel, this summer ale tastes sweet and is kind of refreshing. I rate this as an average beer, certainly better than most other Coors products.

Very good beer. The touch of honey only makes the orange of the original blue moon better. Def. Increases the overall taste.

Smells of yeasty wheat, slight banana. Pours a clear pale yellow/gold color with a think white head. Tastes very sweet, strong honey flavor giving way to a very generic wheat taste. Fairly generic honey wheat, refreshing but nothing special.

Pours like a summer ale should, but I expected a bit more on the nose. Flavor of a typical summer ale, malty with a strong honey punch that lives up to the name. Spicy, citrusy. However, this beer is crippled by a biting, stinging carbonation. Way too much carbonation in this beer kills mouthfeel and puts the flavor in the backseat.

I like honey beers... I like Blue Moon... but something about this didn’t sit right. Nothing special.
