Dundee Honey Brown Lager

This one's an old stand-by from my early drinking days.  It was cheap enough to afford occasionally on my very limited budget, and it tasted quite a bit better than the Jacob Best that I usually got.  It was also one of the gateway beers that helped me move from BMC to craft/microbrews.  So even though it isn't really all that great of a beer, the taste of Honey Brown Lager holds some pretty awesome memories for me.  Every now and then, I like to grab a 6er of it and stroll down memory lane:

Score:

Appearance: 8/10

Aroma: 18/25

Taste: 30/40

Mouthfeel: 7/10

Style: 4/5

Drinkability: 9/10

Overall: 76/100

Impression:

Despite having a thin taste that consists mostly of a faint bready-malt flavor, and despite having low levels of carbonation, poor head retention, and a slight malty aroma, I just can't help enjoying this beer.  It's a little grainy, a little sweeter than I remember, and has little to no aftertaste.  While it poured with a decent head, it fell very quickly, dissipating to a minuscule ring.  This is a good filler beer, and if I could get a case of cans for cheaper than I can get Yuengling Light Lager, I'd probably alternate between the two for more session variety, though Honey Brown is still a little higher on abv than I'd prefer.

Cheers!
