A pale straw ale infused with fruity hops to give a delicate yet more-ish biscuity flavour.

Bottle at home in London. Pours perfectly clear yellow with a mild, white foam head. Aroma holds some floral hops, doughy malts, light cabbage. Medium sweet flavor, doughy malts, white bread, white sugar, mellow straw, some light herbal bitterness. Light bodied with average carbonation. Fairly sweet to finish, light metallic zing, some further white bread malts. There’s a sugary edge in here; perhaps that’s the honey. There’s also an almost respectable hop bite of dry hay that lingers. An OK beer overall.

Pours a clear, straw-colour and has a faint sweet aroma which contrasts nicely with the crisp, bitter taste of the beer. Not anything special but refreshing.

Bottle as part of the Sainsbury’s beer festival. Golden with a slight white head and plenty of carbonation. Light, grassy hop aroma with some sweetish malts. Easy drinking, with some underlying sweetness, solid malts and softly bitter finish. Ok.

500ml bottle from Sainsburys Ashford. Very pale gold clear thin lasting white head. Floral grassy hoppy aroma. Too carbonated. But I like the floral grassy hop swallow and the lasting bitterness on the finish. Pretty decent. Fine. Ok. Sligthly above average golden ale. Can’t find the honey in it, but i suppose there is a slight sweetness on the finish. Me In Honey.

Cask@Reading Beer Festival 2012. Golden colour, mediumsized white bubbly head. Aroma is fruity, honeyish, nectary and mild vanillaish notes. Flavour is fruity, floral and quite hoppy with some slight yeastyness.
