Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a medium golden color with a large yellow-white head. The aroma was faint sweet citrus with a hint of pepper. The flavor was sweet, tangy and had hints of key lime, cardboard and an underlying mustiness.

Cola coloured copper hue with a large soapy tan head and tons of bubbles reminiscent of vernor’s soda. Aroma of ginger, nuts, malt and a horrible amount of metal and blood - nothing too pleasant here. Light-bodied; Horribly fake sugars dash the taste with caramel and some gross prunes tucked into the metal and malt that are most prominent. Aftertaste shows metal and nuts, but mostly a disgusting fruit flavour along with strong alcohol. Overall, a pretty bad beer and not even CLOSE to a belgie dubbel. I had my doubts about this one and I was definitely right - this isn’t worth ANYONE trying. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia on 10-February-2008.

One word sums up this beer: mediocre. I mean, Blue Moon itself isn’t bad (for what it is). The lime taste was initially almost horrifying to drink, but after a few additional sips it is at least more bearable than Miller Chill’s attempt at fusing lime into the beer. Full Moon was good, Harvest Moon is average, and this one joins Honey moon in the "try again" category. I dont see myself returning to this one - and while it’s still around I’d rather grab Full Moon anyway.

Aroma of light citrus and yeast/spice? Coppery amber color with a decent, lasting white head. Thin to medium body with mild, sort of chewy, carbonation. The flavor is wheat, lime indeed, and it seems some spice. The finish is a bit papery, but not all that bad, and the citrus helps out. Pretty refreshing.

Clear medium brown body, thick cream head. Toasty nose with light caramel notes. Rather delicate, sweet body,with brown sugar and toast notes, finishing with light bitterness. Not very complex or compelling. Better than most macros, but I’m almost appalled this is classified as an Abbey Dubbel.

Pour is a nice amber with a small white head. Aroma is sweet malts with a super artificial citrus. Flavor is weird. Very bitter with some vegitable and copper. Gets unpleasant toward the end. There’s lime in this? Not real good.
