Draught@Københavnske Øldage. This pretty much taste like a bar of soap. Some sugary honey characters, horribly sweet and thin.

Draft. Undesirably thin pee-yellow, nose too sour for its own good, head cut off. I’ve had very good honey-added beers in the past, Grauballe and Dansk Mjød kinds come to mind, but this is nothing like a good example of the style. Weak, watery and with very little honey-ish about it.

Gylden øl. Minder om en pilsner, men er mere sød. Lad vær med at drikke den.

(on bottle)Unclear,dark yellow, small, white head. Very sweet aroma of mash and rotten peach. Low carbonation, quite nice and smooth, but gets burby real fast. The taste is fruity, I guess abit of the honey is around too. But not in a plesant way. Ends matallic.

Draught. Almost clear golden colour. Big stable white head. Mild flavour with a bit of metal, like iron tablets. Semi-sweet. I never liked iron.

Bottle. Ok head with decent duration. Color is golden. Taste is sweet but honey is hardly noticeable.

Hazy yellow colour with limited washing powder head. Aroma is like a flowery meadow! Very floral, some hops and a little bitter sweetness. The taste is not as good as the aroma, but still nice. Dry, a bit sour, and with a very strong honey presence.

Bottled. Slightly hazy, golden beer with a white head. Weak aroma of sweet malt and honey. Sweet flavor as well, with honey and fruitiness. Some cellar-notes. Sweet, medium body. Ok, but too sweet all the way. (060430)

Bottle. Golden / orange colour with nearly no white head. Honey and ale aroma. Sweet honey and ale flavour. Too sweet.

Golden colour with a decent white creamy somewhat lasting head. Sweet aroma and taste of malts and honey.
