Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 21, 2009 On tap. Clear yellow with a white head. Lightly sweet aroma of malt and perhaps - if you insist - a little honey. Medium body, malty with some sweetness and perhaps a whiff of sulphur. Hardly any bitterness. 060709 Ungstrup (14754), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 23, 2009 Draft in Carlsbad. A golden beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty combined with notes of straw and citrus. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of honey, medium notes of malt, and lighter notes of caramel and citrus. The body is light. wetherel (1565), Encinitas, California, USA Mar 24, 2009 There are two PP California Honey Ales, one for Solano, one for Carlsbad. Probably should be merged. WeeHeavySD take note! I tried a pint of this swill at Carlsbad. Why order a pint of this when Green Flash Brandy Barleywine is one tap? Well, because I’m a moron who likes to try new beers, and I had no idea this would be, but at least I did finish 3/4 of a pint. Yellowish color. A little vegetal. Medium body. Low hop bitterness. Not bad with pizza, but one of my least favorite PP beers. JohnnyJ (1282), Carlsbad, California, USA Feb 1, 2009 On tap at PP. Yellow pour, white head. Simple, grain, bread, honey, and small amount of hops. Easy to drink, would go well with pizza. BMan1113VR (2756), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA Dec 28, 2008 On Tap at Pizza Port Carlsbad. Pours with a clear golden color and a nice off-white head. Aroma is tons of honey, wheat and orange. Taste is honey suckle and wheat. Fizzy with light bubbles. Snojerk321 (1917), San Diego, California, USA Oct 27, 2008 Draft @ the Tap Room. Pours a lightly hazed golden color with a small white head. Light nose of honey and sweet malts. Flavor was sweet malt, light in body. hopscotch (5440), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Aug 28, 2008 Draft... RBSG ‘08... Clear, lightly golden ale with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Great retention. Restrained, grainy, biscuity nose with peppery hops. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Tastes like honey... a little too sweet and grainy for me. Finishes sweet with just a touch of metallic bitterness. beerinmarch (2781), Alabama, USA Aug 16, 2008 RBSG 2008. Pours gold with a small white head. Well balanced, pairs a soft caramel and honey start against some fruity hops. The hops give a touch of spiciness in the finish. Decent golden, but not very memorable.
