Really good stuff. Almost as sweet as Michelob Honey Lager. Complex it’s not, but it’s very drinkable and mild. Sometimes, that exactly what you’re looking for! Much better than their Irish Red and with a yellow label.

Take my review of Honey Brown and throw a Killian's label on it. Tastes exactly the same.

Pours a medium golden yellow color. Aromas of corn, hops, and a touch of sweetness. Flavors is typical lager with a hint of sweetness. Doesn’t really do anything for the beer.

VERY similar to Dundees Honey Brown Lager. Killians being one of my fallback beers (and usually the only decent beer on tap at most bars in Alabama), I thought I’d give this a shot. Smooth, tasty and altogether inoffensive ... basically Killian’s with a dollop of honey sweetness. Not bad, but maybe too sweet to have more than one or two in a sitting.

Decent lager without too much sweetness. SOmewhat weak and watery with a fair amount of malt. somewhat lacking in texture.

Not that I'd care to seek this out again, but the only time I've ever seen it was when a friend had some and gave me a bottle. My life continues on, unchanged.

This is alright. The Red is much better I think. The taste of honey in beer doesn’t do it for me. The aftertaste is awful.

12oz bottle. Very similar to the killians irish red but with added tones of honey that give it a slight added sweetness.
