Beers similar to California Honey

Blonde Ale·United States·4.8% ABV·One of 201 Blonde Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share California Honey's floral and bready character. California Honey has been poured at Pizza Port since the early years. It is a pale blonde ale brewed with local California honey, which leaves a light floral sweetness rather than a sugary one. Mt. Hood adds a mild herbal note, while Hallertau Blanc brings hints of white grape and a touch of citrus. The malt is soft and bready, the body light, and the finish smooth and clean.
