355ml can - Honey Badger don't care, doncha know?
This beer pours a clear, bright medium copper amber colour, with four flabby fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and mildly creamy ecru head, which leaves some decent layered streaky lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, clove honey, a bit of bruised pome fruitiness, and very subtle earthy, musty, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery caramel malt, dried honey, baked red apples, some damp minerality, and more well-understated leafy, herbal, and dead grassy hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-pleasing frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really causing any sort of concern at this particular point in the game. It finishes off-dry, the malt and honeyed essence presiding.
Overall - this comes across as a well-made version of the sub-style, with the honey applied by a deft hand. Not all that complex, but full of flavour and more suited to a summer patio, than a day when the wind chill is -45C. Honey Badger cares about THAT.
