What is it with this town and Honey Lagers? This is like the 4th one I’ve seen today. For being made with honey, I cannot detect any real honey notes in the nose, kind of a sweetish maltiness from the honey though. This is almost undrinkable.

Draught at the brewpub
Hazy blond color, no head. It has a sweetish malt aroma. The flavor is quite simple, but there is a nice sweetness, even if not honey, to make it easily drinkable.

This beer sure had honey in it and to put it mildly, this made it way too sweet and hard to get past the first couple of sips.

On tap at Dockside. Gold, thin white head. Honey on aroma. Really a bit too sweet and artificial. Bit nasty.
