2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
[500ml bottle, Beers of Europe, King’s Lynn] Pours slightly hazy golden colour, aromas of honey sweetness. On the palate the honey arrives quietly at the end, following some mild malty flavours. It’s a bit thin, drinkable enough – some honey beers become overpowering, but this one is subtle – on the verge of being too insipid [04052009]

Cask Conditioned Handpump Coach & Horses Wellingborough. A hazy blonde to orange coloured beer with a whitish head and lacing. Sweetness in the nose and mouth from the honey. Citrus notes join the honey in the mouth. There are parma violet notes from the lavender. Too sweet but sets out to do a job.

Gravity at Cambridge Beer Festival 2010. Gold with a big foam head. Hops and oranges in the scent with some honey. Well balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Oranges and roast malts with quite a bit of honey in the mouth. Some carbonation. Nice.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Cask - The Brewery Tap, Wroxham. Poured a golden orange with a lasting, bubbly white head. Nice honey, orange and caramel aromas. Sweet fruit up front with a delicate honey note and a great lingering black tea, grassy bitterness. The lavender isn’t obvious but just hinted at. Light to medium in body with mid carbonation
2.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
This pale golden ale is crowned with a lively, yet small white head. Not too much of an aroma going on. In the mouth though there is loads of honey present, very sweet, burnished and exciting. Tingly carbonation bubbles around dried, grassy flavours and really helps the light honey notes make their mark. Not too much of a finish to it unfortunately.
