Belching Beaver Brewery Me So Honey American Pale Wheat Ale at 5.5% ABV | 19 IBU (C$11.99 at Willow Park Wine & Spirits, 650 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 18-Nov-2017, reviewed 19-Nov-2017)
Appearance: hazy deep gold with one finger of creamy off-white head, good retention and patchy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: honey, wheat, bready yeast. (7/10) Taste: moderate-high sweet, moderate-low bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, sweetish mild finish. (3/5)
I’m generally fairly unimpressed by Honey Blonds but figured this was a brewery that at least had a chance of making it interesting. And, it’s not badly done – but it’s a long way from interesting. And, although I’ve had much sweeter examples of the style, this is still sweeter than I prefer. All in all, OK, but not much better than that. (13/20)
