On tap at Mellow Mushroom (Brandon, FL). Pours a clear golden color with a very thin white head. Little detectable aroma emanating from this pint glass. Maybe some hints of wheat and citrus. Sadly, the taste was not much different from the aroma; that is, it tasted like a pilsner but without much citrus, honey or orange blossom flavor. On subsequent tastes we noted a generally watery mouthfeel with a somewhat bitter, dirty dishwater aftertaste.

Bottle labeled as "Florida’s Honey Beer". Pours a bright golden colored with tons of carbonation and a huge off-white head. Aroma is fruity with honey and a bit grainy. The beer tastes very sweet with lots of honey and a touch of hops in the background. It’s too sweet, almost to the point where it seems a little sticky. Interesting and defnitely a unique brew. They make a OBP Squared... I can only imagine how sweet that one is.

This poured an orange color with a carbonated white head. The aroma contains oranges and sugar. Very little honey in the flavor or aroma. This tastes like orange juice but the cheap stuff like Donald Duck OJ. Overall boring.
