Dundee Original Honey Brown Lager

Brewed by High Falls Brewing Company
Style: American Dark Lager
Rochester, New York USA

Very inexpensive, so I didn’t expect much. I was wrong--this isn’t bad at all. Amber in color (not the brown I’d expected), and was sweet and malty in the nose. The taste was pretty much identical to the aroma, but if you searched long enough there was a little tiny hint of honey in there. Mouthfeel was thin and watery, which took away from the experience, but in the end, you get better than what you pay for.

Bottle from Nelson Wines, shared with renffisch and tashi. Yellow and rather flat, this smells like standing downwind of a brewery. Very yeasty aroma with some honey too. Flavour-wise, think dull lager with a bit of honey on top. Smooth palate and honey taste stays around a bit.

Pours a light amber color not brown with a fizzy white head that disappears immediately and completely. The nose is sweet brown malt. Mouthfeel is light like a pale lager, taste is a little brown malt sweetness and minimal honey. The finish is very clean and it is very drinkable but little to linger over in this beer. Too expensive for the taste.

This is decent Lager, very very light taste of honey. Decent color, refreshing taste little or no palate. This beer would be a great choice for a dinner beer with ham or steak

OK flavor, nothing spectacular. Slightly bitter, slightly sweet. Stronger aroma than flavor.

this beer is very bland but and not all that good. Very boring with barely a hint of honey showing up. Wouldn’t buy again

Slightly partial to this beer for different reasons, but a smooth Lager that has above average taste and color but nothing overly exciting about it.
