Point Honey Light

Brewed by Stevens Point Brewery
Style: Pale Lager
Stevens Point, Wisconsin USA

Point Honey Light, 12 oz brown bottle with a twist off cap. Twist off the lid and you get a slight aroma of honey along with the regular yeasty beery smells. The aroma is perhaps a little more yeasty than usual. Pour it into a glass and you get the ubiquitous pale yellow american beer color. The head is a froth of white. There are many bubbles rising from within, very nice random streaming. The initial flavor impact is that of your typical mild lager, friendly and well behaved. I do not taste much honey sweetness in there if any. Carbonation is above average in a good way. Cannot really detect any negative attributes about this beer. With this beer you have the opposite of oppression, pellucid propinquity. So many big beers get in your face, this one just plain wants to get along with you. Easy to drink and repeatable as refreshment. It seems the alky content is either well hidden or just plain low, who knows when it is not listed on the bottle or on the site? Even after drinking half the glass, the streaming continues within and the carbonation is still present. With many other beers the carbonation fades as you near the bottom of the glass. Undoubtedly this beer is filiopietistic in the way it follows the pale yellow american lager style. The finish lacks any bitter linger and is very enjoyable at that. Not as good as Schmidts, Carlsberg or Miller Lite, but pretty good stuff. Much better than heinie light and yuengling light.

Bottled. Poured a clear bright golden with a bunch of rising carbonation and a dusting of white head. Nose picked up sweet honey, grains, and some pale malt... not sure where they were hiding the Cascades from the description?!? .. not bad, though. The flavor picked up sweet honey, pale malts, and grains again with a hint of lemon... highly-carbonated which got in the way of the flavors... dry and refreshing. Most certainly drinkable, but would be better after some manual labor.

This light lager does have a hint of honey in the flavor and it is definitely sweeter than the typical pale. However, finding distinct flavors in this beer takes a more discriminating sampler than me. It is refreshing and well, it is beer.

Pours a three finger white head that fades quickly to a ring leaving no lace. Chrystal clear amber color. Very light carbonation and light bodied. Honey/hoppy nose. Starts with a sweet honey flavor, some hops at finish but it lacks beef. Would be good on a very hot day - its 29. $1.09 for a 12oz bottle from Chalet Party Goshen, In.

Sweet Aroma plus it looks like ginger ale like all the other Point beers. I can only faintly taste the honey in this one. Goe’s down nice though. Now lets see someone make a stout light.

Somewhat better than the regular Point light, with more aroma notes of citrus, some honey, hops, and a much more pale malty flavor.

Very smooth, Perfect flavor, Honey taste is very distinct. Absolutely excellent.

Bottle- from sampler pack. VERY light in color. Bland. Hardly any flavor at all. Does have a slight honey taste, but this beer isn’t really much better than a typical mass market beer.
