Sep 8, 2003 The aroma is sweet and fruity. The color is a beutiful orange and it has a beutiful head. The flavor starts out is nicely sweet malty with strong notes of honey before the bitterness from the cranberries hits the palate. The sweetness turns a little funny artificial in the end. An OK beer but for the artificial note.

Jan 7, 2003 Nose gives honey and honey again. First tasting impression: very watery, thinnish.
Only a bit honey retronasal, no real sweetness. There is some fruitiness at the side of the tongue - could as well be passionfruit as cranberry as anything else - but the fruitiness gets more obvious after a few sips. Some floral bitterness (low-alpha’s?). Could do better.

Aug 18, 2003 Very very sweet and very very thin. The large amount of honey in this beer makes it very unpleasant. And the cranberries are not very noticeable.

May 27, 2006 A very good beer with the honey aroma shining through but the cranberries are almost non-existent unless that it they are there just to give this beer a slightly bitterer edge than the common or garden honeydew.

Jan 6, 2003 Amber beer which has a solid English pale ale appearance. The aroma is very light and one of fresh fruits. The flavour has a watery bitterness about it with the tart aftertaste of cranberry that is ever present. Overall a very drinkable beer, an improvement on the original but slightly a poppish.

Sep 2, 2002 Bottled. Amber colour, moderate head and condition. Low fruity malt nose with barest hint of hops. More fruitiness in the mouth and a dry fruity tartness in the finish. The original Honey Dew was insipid and the addition of cranberry does little to improve it.

Jul 19, 2002 The proper title of this beer, according to the label, is ’Organic Honey Dew with a twist of Cranberry’. :-) Like cranberries generally, its impact is far more in what it does to your mouth and face than what it adds to flavor. You get a distinctively sweet beer (thanks, too, to the honey) but most of all you get a sourness that pickles your mouth. Strong carbonation but not intrusive. Because the other flavors are muted to make way for the sweet/sour thing, this is more wine cooler than beer. But I like fruit beers, so it isn’t too bad.
