Pours with a clear orange-brown body with a small, foamy off-white head that goes quickly. Aroma of hay, nutmeg, allspice, pumpkin and cinnamon. Taste is very watery, with hay and astringency, then some unconnected spices. Fizzy and dry.

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.

Pours bright amber into a shaker. No head whatsoever. Caramel malt aromas - no pumpkin. Crisp and sweat from front to back. Caramel sauce dry finish. Not a bad amber, but docked for lack of pumpkin.

Bottle. Pour is a cloudy straw color with a bit of a white head and agressive aromas of 7-up like lemon/lime with a touch of sweetness. Flavor is a little better, but still reminds me of 7-up. The citrus balances out the wheat and yeast graininess, but it still is a little too sweet. Not going to win any awards by my books, but OK.

Did I have a bad bottle. Now I’m not fond of pumpkin beer anyway, but this swill does absolutely nothing for me. A terrible bitter and musty earthness that overpowers any form of beer. No Thanks.

Not entirely impressive, this white beer has too much spice for me. Rides the unbalanced line with a bitterness I feel a white beer should not have.

On tap. Hazy orange body with a creamy white head. Fresh, fruity aroma with citrus. Flavor is fruity, spicy and quite typical with some orange and a sharp bitter finish. A quite nice one from the big one.

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.
