Sampled at the January ’10 Metro Detroit tasting. Thanks to whoever brought this! Poured a cloudy gold with a medium white head. Aroma had notes of citrus peel, coriander, and light fruit. Flavor was subdued at the start but a spicy finish led by the coriander.

Pours hazy gold with a foamy white head. Light aromas of citrus zest and a bit of spice. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is a litte bready, a little banana, some definite citrus zest. Pretty good. Leaves a bit of herb in the mouth.

22 oz bomber from Bevmo Salinas. Nose of banana, yeast, spices, and white bread. Murky yellow orange with a medium pale yellow head. Flavor is pepperiness, banana, cloves, and yeasty breadiness.

Bottle at Once Upon a Vine - North on 12/23/2009. Cloudy orange body with a medium frothy white head. Sweet orange and spice aroma. Big fruit and spice flavor with some lemon hints. Medium body with moderately high carbonation. Really not a bad beer, but at $8 a bottle, priced way too high for what it is.

Bottle. Sweet orange/lemon and wheat malt aroma. Cloudy orange-yellow color with small head. Sweet orange/lemon and wheat malt flavor with light orange peel finish. Nice but not worth the price.

750 ml. bottle. Pours a nice hazy orange color with a medium sized white fluffy head. Dissipates quickly. Aroma is orange, spices, yeast. Flavor is the same orange, spice, yeast flavor that Blue Moon has, noticeable alcohol increase. A good step forward for a macro, especially compared to the really fake tasting BL "Wheat" I had this past weekend.

Bottle thanks to mar. Pours with a hazy golden body and a large white head. Aroma of coriander and spice with clove and a dry champagne note. Taste is quite sweet with coriander, clove, and is really not that bad at all. Light to medium carbonation. Dryish finish considering the sweetness. Not bad!

750 ml bottle. 2009 bottle. Faint aromas of banana esters, wheat. Pours hazy gold with a medium white head which dissipates somewhat quickly, leaving a large circular pattern of foam on the top of the beer; it looks like a giant golden eyeball looking at me in my Chimay Trappist glass--or maybe a boob; good lacing. Tastes of citrus, alcohol. Alcohol warms the back of the throat. Somewhat sweet. Full-bodied creamy mouthfeel. Has a bitter finish. Not bad, not great.

Faint babyfood banana and lemongrass aroma. Opaque golden with a thick puffy white head. Strong coriander upfront, volatile at midpalate, stale wheat malt and grass finish. Hats off to MC for making a decent beer. It’s not spectacular, but it is head and shoulders above their usual products.
