I prefer the honey ale from NBC but this is ok. A nice honey sweetness to the flavour but little else worth mentioning. A nice summer beer.

Bottle, june 2003 Malt and honey aroma. Amber, no head. Honeyish but somewhat of balance.

Light malty beer with a bit of honey flavour. Tastes a little commercial as do most of their beer.

Straw-coloured with a bubbly white head that fades to nothing. Aroma is unappealing, grass and hay with thin malt and very few hops apparent. There is very little bitterness or malt apparent and the body is thin and watery. Only slightly better than most macro stuff.
