    Sessionable HB for a party using honey

    Setting up a HB for a party next month. Interested in making something sessionable that has enough flavor for the beer snobs but not so heavy or complex that an everyday drinker couldn't enjoy. I am still a newbie so I like simple until I totally get the hang of everything. This Honey Lagar...
