Point Honey Light
Stevens Point Brewery

 

 

has a hint of honey flavor. good.

 

 

 

 

 

12 oz bottle poured into a Sierra Nevada Imperial Pint. No date or info.

A - Constant carbonation flows up through the clear pale yellow straw color to a mediocre white head. Less than one finger of head with ok retention and a little arch of lace.

S - Raw honey is light on the nose but gives it a good feel, not syrupy. Light pale malts and a touch of straw. No hops. Crisp and refreshing smelling that seems to be of good quality for a light lager.

T - The raw honey adds a mild sweetness that's real tasting, not overly sugar-laden. The pale malts are also light in flavor which gives it a thin body and flavor profile. Not bad though.

M - Thin and a bit watery, it's light-bodied and overly carbonated. Not much to report otherwise.

D - Yes, here is where it shines. Not bad at all, but rather a little bland. A great beer for the summer though. It's thirst-quenching and light with decent flavor. I could have a few of these no problem.

Rich gold in color with moderate prickle. Wispy head of lace and a little foam. The prickle burst through the surface and ruins the retention of the head. The nose is one that is lightly occupied by honey scents. The attack is rich with the honey. The flavor ends up being sweet and with very pronounced honey notes. It is almost obnoxious, but actually ends up getting away with the honey as its fairly drinkable. I have to scratch my head really.

You knew this beer would get a low garde here because it is a light american lager. But it has a pretty high alc. amount for a light lager and the honey adds a warmness to the quality of point light. A good lawn mowing beer that is more than just swill.

Appearance - Pale yellow, light head but nice for a light beer

Smell - Simple Light Beer aroma.

Taste - The slight hint of honey does not over power as it does with similar brews

Mouthfeel - The light carbonation gives a nice feel

I picked a six pack up to enjoy while grilling out with some friends. I was very pleased with the refreshing taste while standing in the hot sun. Had the first from a pint glass and the next two straight from the bottle, much better out of the cold pint glass. Would reccomend for similar situations where you are looking for something a little different.

A light lager with a dry finish and a barely detectable honey flavor, that's about it. Light & refreshing. If you like light beers this should do you fine. It has the typical Point wateryness which makes it very drinkable, just not satisfying. They put these in their variety 12 packs and I find it a nice change of pace beer but that's about it.

Purchased as part of "build-your-own-six-pack" at local grocer. Poured a very small head on a very light yellow. Smelled faintly of a typical lager, with a touch of sweetness which also came through in the taste. That measure of honey helped alot. Very smooth, very easy to drink despite its lack of anything exciting. Good all day summer brew.

12oz. twist off. Part of a mix 12 pack.
Pours a crystal clear, very light straw color. Thick head of large white bubbles. Honey is prominent in the aroma. Almost a caramel cookie smell. Flavor matches the aroma. Nice medium body lets the honey shine. Mild bitterness lasts only an instant in the aftertaste. Looks like swill, but pleasant to drink. I may have to give this one a shoot when the weather warms up.

Appearance - Transparent, pale yellow, pours about an inch of head which quickly fades to a white cloud on the brew's surface. A good-looking light beer.

Smell - A simple malt aroma.

Taste - The taste of honey is prevalent but it doesn't make the beer too sweet. It adds just enough to make this beer better than your average light beer. Dare I call it a good light beer. I dare.

Mouthfeel - The feel is watery but able to maintain a subtle carbonation to offer some texture.

~ A good drink on a summer afternoon I'm sure. On a cold February evening in Wisconsin... I think not.

a: pours a clear golden color with about an inch and a half of head that dissapears relatively fast leaving no lacing
s: heavy wheat aroma crisp aroma and a little citrus hop aroma, some sweet honey aromas
t: wheat malts, very reminiscente of leinie's honey weiss, however with a little less flavor. crisp sweet honey flavor is mild
m: light to medium bodied beer with average amount of carbonation

overall, this is an ok session beer but i dont htink that ill pick it up again

Well it was light, but someone forgot the honey for it. Poured a clear light straw yellow, decent white head.

Aroma was strictly macro veggies and corn, no honey sweetness to be found, although during the taste a smidgen made its way through. Body was plain jane and boring – matching the overall beer in most aspects.

A- Clear straw yellow with a light white head that faded relatively quickly into a thin film
S- pretty light on the scents, a slight honey scent, not much there
T- a clean light taste that is pretty smooth, dont really notice the honey anymore, but its a smooth clean flavor
M- medium carbonation with a light body which fits well for the style
D- a nice light beer that is pretty clean without any flaws, light not just in calories but in flavor etc. but it is a good light lager

A delicious, above-average light beer geared toward females and light beer afficionados. Pours a clear pale amber and smells of sweet malt with a faint hint of hop bitterness. Well conceived, satisfying sweet honey taste with a caramely finish. Light mouthfeel and highly drinkable should please most session drinkers. Pairs well with summertime grilling fare, salads, etc. Impress your friends and family with a great summertime party/picnic alternative to Miller, Bud and Coors.
