Bottle. I like this beer. It had a definite honey taste but it was not sweet at all. Smelled slightly of honey and even looked like honey when poured into a glass. I recommend this beer.

12oz bottle, pours a cloudy golden/amber with frothy white head. Aroma of wheat and orange peel. Taste is malty, with orange and wheat. Mouthfeel is smooth and a bit creamy, with medium carbonation. Nothing outstanding, but a good refreshing summer beer.

12 oz bottle via Roth’s. Pours a clear amber with a large white head. Nose is malt and corn. Taste is toasty, bready with some mild spice, subtle honey and a some citrus. Just what you want and expect from a refreshing easy to drink bqackyard summer beer. Good for what it is. Body is light/medium, carbonation is just right. Wasn’t expecting to like or finish this bottle. I do and i will.

Clear, light color with nice head. Good fruity smell. Smooth flavor which almost could be mistaken for a lager. A good lawnmower brew, but not much more. Little to no aftertaste.

Pours a crystal golden color with a spicey, citrusy aroma. Flavor is light, a tap bit hoppy. Flavors of lemon and banana. Very light flavor. Not bad. A touch too carbonated though.

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.
