poured yellow with an ample head. smelled like a rancid hamburger and body oder. tasted like trash run off. I could hardlsy stand to drink it but some how finished. The worst beer I have ever tried. If it had been the first I would have stuck with tea. I’d honestly perfer Old English 8.0 to this. And I never tasted honey which I was under the impression was the point.

On tap at the Flying Saucer in Charlotte. Golden body with a diminishing white head. The flavor and finish are fruity and kind of sour. I didn’t really catch any of the honey that is apparently the basis of the whole beer. Not too bad.

Hazy golden body, disappearing white head. Rather cloying butter and honey aroma. Sharp and somewhat sour fruit and honey flavor with a buttery subtone. Uninteresting.

Ewww.. Disgusting sweet honey aroma, with some sour hints. Golden body, small white head. Sourish flavor, and then honey. Honey is not good in beer...

Bottled: Light golden coloured. Clear. Off white medium sized head. Honey and malt in the nose. Honey a bit too dominating for my likings. Sweet honeyis flavour. Some fruits present. Thin watery body. Ends on a very sweet note. A bit cloying. Not a beer I’ll run for.

Bottle: Strong orange aroma with light honey. Pours a cloudy honey color with a pretty big off-white head with great retention. Lots of sediment. Flavor is watery citrus and honey combination. Some fruit. Light sour citrus finish.

Pour was golden with a slight soapy head. Sweet aroma. Flavor is sweet but not really what I would call "honey".
