COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A rich golden lager with just a hint of local wild flower honey gives this unique beer its extra smooth taste. Brewed from an original recipe using the famous Formosa Spring Water.

Smooth and drinkable, this beer has a distinctive flavor and character. There are a few Honey Browns I have enjoyed more, but not many.

Tried once and wasn’t impressed, as thoroughly unimpressed the second time. Quite a bland, characterless beer really.
