Rogue Honey Cream Ale

Brewed by Rogue Ales
Style: Cream Ale
Newport, Oregon USA

overal this was just ok, after drinking a few other beers before this it made it taste like just a normal beer not really any flavor to it at all.

Bottle. Hazy golden colour with a decent frothy white head. The aroma is honey. The taste is honey and hops. Dry, light bitter finish, medium bodied, very drinkable, very good.

bottle. orange body with a small fizzy head. lots of carbonation is apparent. faint notes of honey, grass, and malt. Flavour is crisp and thirst quenching but doesn’t really shine in any particular area. hoppy. dry finish. an average ale. My first disappointing Rogue brew.

12 oz bottle. This is one of my favorite lighter beers. Decent white head after pouring. Color of a Budweiser, but don’t let that deter you. Well carbonated. Aromas include slight honey, a touch of hops and lemon, and a little sweet creamyness. Also a hint of something fruity, peach I think. More hops in the flavor than I had imagined there would be. Once after I had consumed quite a few other beverages I tricked myself into thinking it was an IPA, with disabled taste buds of course. A touch of pine and citrus on the tongue as well. Finish is very clean. A well balanced and very drinkable beer.

I don’t usually go in for honey beers, little too sweet normally, but this was well balanced. Yellow orange colour, fair persistant head. Aroma of malt, citrus hops, honey is obvious. Taste well balanced and still has a good hoppy finish. Better than I was expecting.

Nez:houblon florale gout::houblone mais on peut goute un petit gout mieleux qui se melange bien au malt . J’aurais crue une biere qui goute plus le miel de la aprt de rogue.

May, 2003: 12 oz bottle from Bottles, London. Some citric hops above a rather dull body. Medium mouthfeel, gentle carbonation. But kind of crude. Not bad, but not outstanding in any way. Unattractive orange gold colour. Some watery lemon just before the finish. Hop finish is the best feature. Quite tangy, but doesn’t develop.

Bottle. Hazy golden appearance, with small white head. In the aroma, there is bread and bitterness. The honey is not verynoticable in the flavor, but there is some bitterness and some sweetness (like butter). The hop finish is slightly astringent and unpleasant.
