I was introduced to Victory about 2 months ago. I tried their V-12 which is their high alcohol, high flavor, quadruppel. Now I'm hooked to their beers. Wanted something light and this was it.
Look/Pour/Smell - Yellow lemon look, carbonation is their but it's an easy pour. Malt and lemon dominate. Unfiltered so there's sediment.
Taste - Lemon and spice, light flavor, lemon after taste. Malt is subdued. Refreshing.
Rating - 7
This one gets a 7 because of the price range it's in. It dominates the other beers in this range and category. It's not the best wheat I've had overall, but it's great for a starter. Let your friends try it.
My grading scale
It is subjective, but I think you'll be able to understand where I'm coming from:
1-3 "Horrible" : NEVER BUY THIS!!!! (Or buy it just to see what crappy beer tastes like.)
4-5 "Ok" : These beers need a little work. Usually from a company known for another type of brew.
8-9 "Great" : Try this at least once, you'll be happy you did :D
10!!!!! "Godly" = This is attainable, but the most subjective of all grades. If I ever give a beer a 10 it'll be because it blows your mind.

6-7 "Good": It's ok, for now.

Blue Moon Grand Cru Special Edition
How do you like the pic?
So Blue Moon was my first "non-massed produced American beer."
Great wheatey, orange smell. Softer head that falls a little faster.
This beer is what I first tasted when I had regular Blue Moon. It's what got me away from American Pilsners.
Great wheat taste, great orange. Like Blue Moon X2. The taste you really want.
Rating = 7 I won't give it an 8 because I only wish this was the taste of regular Blue Moon, but great flavor, great beer.
