Like its cousin the White Ale, the Honey Brown is fairly standard. There isn't even any honey to it. I guess they mean that the brown is honey, not that the beer is a brown with honey to it? I always liked JW Dundee's Original Honey Brown, 'cause there was an aftertaste of honey, a little bit of sweetness that didn't overpower the rest of the brown. But nope, not here. Just a tasty, toasty malt, low on carbonation and on hops. There is a mellowness that's honey-like, and for not having a lot of hops it's still fairly balanced. But it's nothing fantastic. Mostly just a good alternative within the Rickard's series.
