a booleg version of blue moon, some basic attributes, a bit of citrus flavor, decent body.

Recommended as a step up from Blue Moon... ended up pretty close on my list. Same style, different category in my mind though. It finished a lot smoother and fruitier than Blue Moon. Reminded me of Ebelweiss by Two Brothers (without the wheaty aftertaste that is). Overall pretty good, but I would probably choose Blue Moon over this, strictly for the bitterness factor.

On tap. Not much for aroma, a little citric and sweet wheat. Light yellow and cloudy with a small white head. The flavor is sweet with a very mild sourness. Pretty light on the palate. A decent beer but doesn’t really compare to a real Belgian Witbier.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a solid white head. The head fades quickly. Strong lemony wheat scents. A hint of banana and clove. Medium carbonation with a medium light mouthfeel. It also has a bit of dryness to it. Light citrus notes, a bit of spice, coriander, clove, and wheat. Finishes pretty clean. A decent wheat for the masses, but pretty insulting to the Belgians!

12 oz bottle. Pours a muddy hazy dull gold- hints of brown- thinning white head to a film. Aroma is like blue moon if you squeeze the orange slice into it- gets very citrus- sweet, a bit muddled and phenolic- honey as well. Citrus and orange peel light doughy and cracker wheat, a bit too artificial. Meh.

I had this blind from a friend. It’s very lite all the way around. I guess they are going for the masses. Not a lot of aroma. Good looking pour. Flavor is rather bland lacking the sweetness and spice of a wheat beer. Thin on the palate. Not terrible but stick with the smaller breweries.

Pours hazy somewhat dark orange for the style, with a big white head. Aroma is wheat heavy, with some nice spice. In the flavor the citrus (mostly orange) takes more of a starring role and the wheat and spices are secondary players. As I continued to drink the beer the heavy citrus became a little overwhelming.

Very citrus-y aroma, lots of orange essence. The flavor has some nice subtle spices over a layer of cardboard. Not great.
