Bottled. A pale golden beer with a huge off-white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of straw, metal, and malt. The flavor is sweet with light notes of malt as well brewing cereal, and a touch of fruit, leading to a lightly bitter finish..

Bottle. Poured lager yellow with thin white head. Slight aroma of citrus. Flavour is mostly honey with a slight orange tinge. Sweet honey finish. Unremarkable.

Pours pale gold into a shaker. Bright white head with little retention recedes to skim surface. Stale honey and wheat aromas. Sweet, crisp, honeyed wheat upfront turning to marshmallow and a dry, sour spice finish.

Bottle. Pour is a yellow body with a smallish white head. Aromas promise sweet sugars and lemon. Flavor is a mess of honey sweetness and lemon that ends in the drain.

12 oz. bottle obtained from a pile of donated beer at a fundraiser. I will admit this kind of scares me. Dated Sept 7. 08. Straw yellow color with a huge head. Very grainy, slightly grassy and very sweet aroma with definite honey notes. Oh my freaking lord when I finish poring the bottle the yeast enters looking like it has the consistency of cottage cheese. That just sent an average appearance rating plummeting. Taste is honey and the faintest wheat notes. Cloyingly sweet. Drain pour.

12 oz Bottle from Country Club Liquors; Nose of banana, citrus, and light bubblegum; hazy yellow with a big, pale yellow, glass lacing head and a bunch of small floaties; flavor is sweet and grainy with some banana and citrus; best of the five Blue Moon ales I have had, actually pretty good when it’s 103F outside today and I have just come in from working in the heat.

Bottle. Pours a pale golden color with a medium frothy white head. The aroma is Bread and yeast with clove. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a sweet honey and banana. A decent wheat ale.

12oz bottle. Cloudy golden-orange color. The aroma comes off a little adjuncty, but the flavor is pretty good. A nice fresh wheaty vanilla flavor with ample honey in there as well. Decent enough, an ok session beer.
