May 18, 2003 Strong honey notes in the aroma. Very sweet. A sickening. the honey added in this beer is quite artificial and has never been real honey.

May 23, 2008 500 ml. bottle. Light honey aroma. Light golden color with little head. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Flavor of honey, biscuit and some slightly spicey hop. Interestingly tasty combination. Almost a note of ginger. Whatever, it keeps the sweetness in check.

Jan 2, 2002 The honey in this beer is not that noticable although it does contribute to the mouthfeel. Nice balance but a below average beer from fullers.

Jul 20, 2006 Bottle. Limpid golden body with good carbonation and a thick off-white bubbly head. Decent malty/hoppy aroma with easily discernable honeyish notes. Taste is good, but lacks complexity as it is dominated by maltyness and breadiness. Ends with a short bittersweet finish. Average Blond Ale.

Jul 20, 2005 Light amber colour, small head. Aroma is one-dimensional honey. Flavour is sweet and a bit cloying. The aftertaste is slightly skunky. Not my favourite Fuller’s, but not a bad beer.

Jul 8, 2006 Bottle from the LCBO. I really, really wanted to like this but in the end I am left ambivalent about it. All four bottles blew up on me...you know the type, a large fizz as soon as the bottle is opened and it took nearly 10 minutes for the head to settle in a 25oz glass before I could pour the rest in. That being said, the aroma was malty sweet with nary a presence of hops. I really liked the appearance of the beer itself and I won’t lower marks due to the rambunctious head. Flavour-wise, I was underwhelmed with the maltiness. It’s sweet. I’ll give it that. Chalk me up as one who is not a fan of using honey as an adjunct.

Aug 15, 2006 Bottle. Pours a fairly nice looking gold with lots of bubbles and an average size diminishing foamy white head. Mild aroma starts grainy with malt and sugary yeast -- the honey is pretty faint, I’m not getting much out of it at all. Flavour’s also grainy with yeast and a minimal amount of honey, it seems to show up mostly in the finish along with some herbal hops. Medium bodied. Meh, it’s alright but mostly this is pretty boring, it tastes like a bland Pilsener that’s a little too sweet.
