Commercial Description:
For centuries, brewmasters have used honey as an ingredient in beer to enhance a brew's naturally sweet, creamy flavor. Our Honey Lager is brewed in this tradition, using all natural honey and the finest barley malts for rich, smooth taste and a deep golden color.

Crystal clear amber beer. Very light nose, even after warming a bit. Amost devoid of aroma. The flavor was way to sweet for me it was almost a sugar overdose, they should have let this ferment longer to tame that sweet honey taste and put in a little more alcohol then it might just be more palatable the finish is honey sweet almost to the point of being sickening. Perhaps good to use in a marinate, but minimal for human consumption.

Found this to be quite undrinkable. Sweet grainy maltiness with a bit of honey adding to the already sweet malt profile. Light bodied, mild carbonation, and a sickening aftertaste.

It’s times like these that I wish I were allergic to bees. Better than a lot of the macro produced pale lagers but too sweet for my taste.

A Good addition to the honey beer movement. A lighter tasting beer with a heavy honey flavor. One of the better American made honey lagers that isn’t a white.

I really dont get the adding honey to beer thing. As someone who does not have a sweettooth I can tell that it will not work for me, still it was a free offer for me. By my account this was just like Michelob but a llittle sweeter.

bottle - Pours clear light amber with a thin white head. It has a mild aroma of sweet malt and honey. The flavor is of sweet honeyed malt, very sweet, and has a touch of hops in the finish. It’s light bodied and leaves a slightly unpleasant aftertaste.
