Poured from a bottle. No Head, No Lacing. Straw Yellow. Decent carbonation. Sweet Nose. Definitely honey sweet flavor. No hops detectable. This is a beer for people who don’t like beer. Almost like a fruit beer with no fruit. Won’t buy it again. It isn’t terrible, I would drink it if offered with no viable alterntive.

Pretty good. Very sweet almost to the point of syrupy. I wouldn’t/couldn’t drink many of these brews on account of the sugary sweetness. Color is rich yellow; the head is mild. Taste is honey and sugar. Finishes smoothly.

The wife wanted it. Clear straw yellow color with no head. Aroma of wheat, and some fruit. A bit sweet. Can taste the honey, some fruit. Too sweet.

On tap at some festival in Chicago. Pours a decent honey yellow color with little head. Aroma is big and sweet, and the taste is awfully sweet too. This had too much artificial sweetness to it, and not enough balance throughout.

Bottle 35, 5 cl. Clear golden with a dense white head leaving laces. Sweet honey aroma. Medium-bodied, sweetish honey, almonds and cardboard. Dry and lightly sulphurous finish with a sticky honey note that comes late. 060709

12 oz. bottle served in shaker- poured transparent darkned yellow with orange, a few swirls atop the liquid surface for a head, medium carbonation. Faint aroma of honey, malt, wheat, lemons, oranges, and corn. HIts the mouth with a high-thin body, honey and something else sweet (I’m thinking sucrose from the lab) hits your palate, middle has a slight amount of spice, finish is unfortunately nonexistance. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that this one isn’t that bad- it’s for people trying to crossover to other brews besides BMC, and still has some swill elements. Don’t judge it to the nipple twisting, Brett forced, aged in old whiskey barrel beers- if you can call them beers. It is what it is- and it wasn’t too bad at a recent Texas BBQ with it being 105 outside, in the shade.

A light golden yellow beer that you can’t quite see through. Small bubbles say drink me, but the head what little there is dissapeared quickly and no lacing at all. The taste was a mild watered down taste with a hint of carbonation. I would drink it if someone else bought it, but over all a weak flat beer.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Cornish and vague syrupy sweet aroma. Bitter and syrupy flavoured, light cornish touch. Light bitter finish. Lasting syrupy flavoured finish impression.
