Feb 2, 2005 Updated: Sep 8, 2005A fine example of one of my least favourite styles. This avoids the cloying sweetness that mars so many honey ales. It pours a gold colour with the huge, lasting head typical of Fullers’ ales. The nose is sweet and zesty. Strong honey characters underpinned by malt. It’s a crisp and refreshing brew with a lip-smacking hoppy body. Green apple characters. The target hops provide a nice balance to the sweetness of the honey, so that the latter is never overpowering. (Bottle)

Jan 23, 2005 Copper to dark honey in the glass. Nice. Expressive nose of sweet malts and a clearly defined honey note - almost confectionary. Fantastic in the mouth; very malt driven but the sweetness from the honey is undeniable. Great fun. Might be a little sweet for some but this is IMHO an awesome take on the style.

Jan 13, 2005 Golden ale with a thick white head, collapses quickly. Has the bottle is opened, honey comes out right away, very pleasant. Sustained honey with grains in aroma. Nice malts, with light sweet honey in mouth, with some light hops, and creamy mouthfeel. Decent honey beer. Thanks to Piscator.

Dec 19, 2004 For some reason I am not so keen on additives in beer such as honey so I approached this one with caution.How wrong can you be? This is a floral tasting ale that is smooth and refreshing.
With plenty of body and a smashing aftertaste it is one worth seeking out.

Dec 8, 2004 Bottle at some pub in Wimbledon. Clear golden body with hardly any head at all. Sweet aroma, doughy with some honey and malt. Didn’t do much for me though. Light flavor, kind of crisp. But some definite honey notes. Nice to try some different Fullers beers though.
