I entered this beer, so feel free to correct the style. The ABV and description is from the menu. On tap at the brewery. 6 sampler platter. In order from best to worst: I liked North Jetty IPA, Signature Pale Ale, Hill Street Honey, Hibiscos Hefe, Point Break Porter, Switch Stance Strong Ale. Hill Street Honey is light yellow. Mild aroma. Light sweetness. Easy to drink. Good sessionable beer.

Sampler at Breakwater. Pours golden, white head. Aroma is hoppy, light honey aroma. Taste, sweet honey, some grapefruit hops, thought the finish remains very smooth and sweet with some honey blossom and floral mouthfeel and a light malty presence.

Draft. Straw colored beer with a white head. Honey and light fruit aroma. Honey and malt flavor with light citrus. Medium-light bodied. Refreshing. Honey and light grapefruit lingers with light caramel. Surprisingly nice.

On tap at the brewpub. Dark gold in color with a white head. Aroma of grain, bread, grapefruiit/fruit, honey; slightly sweet. Flavor of grain, sweet malt, fruit and a bit of honey. This was really nice and a beer that could appeal to alot of people.

On-tap at the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy, golden color with a medium size white head and spiderweb lace. Smells of light cereal malts and a big dose of sticky, sweet honey. Tastes the same. Dry, cereal malts with a good dose of honey sweetness through the middle to the finish. Light body, vibrant carbonation.

Tap @ Breakwater. Mostly clear gold with a thin wispy white head, some spotty lacing. Nose held subtle honey notes with some cereal grain and faint grassy hops.

Their easy drinking beer. Sweet honey flavor on top of a richer malty lager. Actually a decent beverage, but just not my style.

From tap at the brewpub. Pours clear and golden yellow with a fully gone head. Light hoppy and honey aroma. Flavour is sweet and light honey. Crisp and mild fruity flavoured. Bitter and mild yeasty finish.

Sample at the brewery. Clear gold pour, white head. Light malty beer with sweet honey, flowers, citrus, and bread. Easy to drink.

Clear golden with a fizzy white head. Very faint aroma. Bright palate with a bready slightly honey taste.
