RigorMortis (21), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Feb 18, 2008 Draught @ Milestone’s as Palomino Honey Red - Nice color but lacked head, too sweet for its own good. Pleasant enough to drink, but only recommended for beer newbies or my wife. ILduce (98), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Feb 12, 2008 Amber-orange with no head or lace. Lots of honey and caramel in the nose, but that’s it. Taste is muddled by too much honey. Watery with some malt flavour. Has a syrupy mouthfeel that resembles old cola...flat and unflattering in every way. blankboy (2609), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Sep 21, 2007 Draught at Milestone’s. As ’Palomino Honey Lager’. Pours a clear bubbly orange with an average size diminishing white head. Aroma’s mild and dull with sugar, light hops, somewhat fake honey and a hint of grain. Watery flavour of fake honey, grain, malt and only a hint of hops. Light to average bodied. I’ve had worse Canadian ’Honey’ beers, that’s for sure, but this is still pretty mediocre stuff. JesseM (406), Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Aug 31, 2007 I’m pretty sure this one isn’t retired completely, I had it at the rum runners pub last night in Kitchener. And it wasn’t all that horrible. Nice aroma with honey being very evident. The taste had sort of an unpleasant skunkiness to it, but other than that it was enjoyable. robinvboyer (1048), Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, Canada Jan 25, 2007 not very good.
very very sweet, way too sweet.
it was like taking a macro pale lager and dumping in whack of sugar water. very thin, not enjoyable at all.
