Rogue Honey Cream Ale

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

Not bad.Pleasant honey aroma and slight honey aftertaste. Light-to medium mouth feel. Pretty golden color. Flavor doesn’t last long on palate and it’s nothing to write home about. Overall they did a good job, but it’s not something I prefer.

08.19.04 12oz bottle. Pours a deep golden with a nice thick head. Maltiness is obvious in aroma, also lightly floral. Flavor is sticke malty; hop bite translates as vegetal at times. I keep having MGD flashbacks with this beer for some reason. I can’t say I love it, but it seems a servicable quaff.

Lightly hazy orange body, medium off-white head. Buttered toast aroma with floral hints. Flavor is very much like the Oregon Golden Ale I recently sampled, with largely the same malts (buttered toast, burnt caramel) and different hops (imparting a spicy, floral, and lightly piney finish). Honey by suggestion but it isn’t really pronounced. Another solid Rogue beer.

My first cream ale! Pours a foamy though fast dying head on a hazy orange golden body. Aroma is mostly hoppy with flowery and herby tones. Flavor is sweet at first with a bitter finish. Hop, malt and little spicy. Soft mouthfull. Easy drinkable and tasty but where the heck is the honey?

Bottled. Pours a slightly hazy, golden color..sadly, it looks like a urine sample with a creamy white head of good size...mmm...Nice initial lacing and then the head becomes very thin and lacing becomes almost nill. Aroma is honey, honey-pollen, lots of yeast of white, sugarless bread dough and some sweat. Medium body, lots of creamy carbonation and a dry, watery finish. Front is honey sweet, yeasty sour finish, lightly hopped for a Rogue. Simple flavor, but very yeasty, sweet, pleasant, very drinkable and very refreshing. I like the yeast in this one.

Pours a deep golden color and has a slight hint of hops upon smelling. I can taste some hops, but I can’t really taste any honey. It tastes kinda bitter as well.

Doesnt taste like cream or honey. mediocre. nothing special and kind of a rip off for the price of a six pack of rogue.

Orange in color with no head. Has some citrus and hop smell. Crisp with a mild hop taste. Some honey taste, but not much. Kind of grassy, very average.
