Your taste buds are similar to mine, I don't really like sweet drinks.Ā Porn prefers the rose to white and never drinks red.Ā She also like the Koppaberg cider, I must admit I have tried it when needing the non alcoholic version but not a normal drink for me.

Very different from the 1845, that's a rich strong ale. The Honey Dew is only 5% (soft drink for you), quite light and refreshing I recall. Thought I'd get after all the sun we'd been havingĀ šĀ The Brewer's Note giveĀ a full spiel "Brewed to 5% ABV, Organic Honey Dew imparts gentle honey sweetness both on the nose and the palate. Orange fruit flavours rise from the yeast, while the First Gold hop adds its own citrusy notes. Refreshing and zesty, itās the perfect companion for salads and Thai foods."

It sounds like it's a ''summer'' type ale. I probably wouldn't like it, so won't try until the mixed pack is available again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have had a coupe of the Honey Dew, it's OK but not that great.Ā There's many better summer ales out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
