A lighter variation of the very popular Honey Brown, it retains the smooth character of the original but with less calories and lower alcohol content.

[1] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (5/6/2008 11:58:54 PM)
"Dumped into a glass. Light amber - good colour for a light brew. Very good sized off white head with good lacing excellent retention and light carbonation. The aroma is of sweet honey, sugary and soft lemon, ok malts, a bit of yeast - very good for lightish beer. A touch of skunk when warmer. The taste is very odd - light hops, a touch of honey, strangely creamy. Finishes empty.

"Very Clean and clear looking, copper colored body with a quarter inch off white fizzy cap that had some retention, doesn’t look all that bad for a light beer. Slight hopy and sweet smelling brew, for a light beer it smells ok, just maybe a touch of sourness in the sent. Wow taste very sweet, fakly sweet, chemically sweet even, but after the first sip my taste buds stopped working and the brew had no more flavor, except for a bready after taste. The beer was to thin and way to heavily carbonated. For a light beer it looks and smells ok but taste was overly sweet and fake. "

"once again... why would anyone feel the need to make a "light" version of a 5% beer?? And this one isnt a lager... but a Honey Brown!! mmmm watered down even more then it already is! the pour produces less then inspired watery brown with a small white bubbly head that idnt stick around, smell of weak malts and a slight touch of honey, taste is a bit funny, dont know how to describe it... sorta sharp and not what you'd expect from a honey brown!! mouthfeel is watery and severly thin... probably cos its watered down so bad... not that great... one thing about all the quidi vidi beers i had... there all easy as hell to pound back... but that said they are seriously lacking in the aspects of a good beer!"

"Bottle courtesy of BeerMountie, thanks Tony! Dark amber pour with a thin and inactive white ring. Grainy aromas masked by an off caramel candy odor. Sweet grain and bread flavours are whirled about with diluteds hops and malt. Thin, watery finish. Thanks Tony! "
