Commercial Description:
Here’s the original honey beer. Crisp and refreshing, with a hint of sweetness. To craft the beer, we enlist the talents of several million local bees for their pure, white clover honey. Our brewmaster then blends the ambrosia with select, two-row barley malt and balances it with prized Willamette hops. While the bees reluctantly part with their honey, The Great American Beer Festival enthusiastically receives it, as they’ve awarded OHB a silver medal in a category with more than 60 blonde ales.

~Pours a very pale light gold with small white head. ~Light malty wheat scent, a bit sour. ~Has a macro brew taste, really boring. ~Light feel, quick finish. ~A boring brew. Not bad tasting. Just nothing to it.

Bright gold pour with a decent lasting head. Light sweet aroma of malt and honey. Flavor is much the same with a touch of hops, though not enough to balance the sweetness. Nothing bad, but nothing great here either.

Golden lager pour, light wheaty aroma, a little sweet and carbonated, pretty clean beer. Not complex enough to go into detail on the flavors or palate. Quaffable though.

Light gold color, slightly hazy, medium head. Light malts and hops, brewed with real honey. A slightly sweet, wheat beer. Nice balance. Mouthfeel is full. Nice taste, crisp and refreshing. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is slightly sweet, no bitterness.

12oz bottle: Pleasant but nothing of note. Wouldn’t buy it again but it was fine to drink once. Sorry if these comments are somewhat lacking. This is my first rating.

This beer pours a brightly coloured golden colour with a slight orange tint. No head, just a little visible scattered white froth atop. Aroma is malty with a barely noticeable honey scent. Mouthfeel is well carbonated, and honey is evident upon initial taste. Refreshing crisp, and pretty clean taste all the way through.

Like a pale lager with a hint of honey. According to the commercial description, "While the bees reluctantly part with their honey..." I can see why they were reluctant.
