I came to Sliver for the first time today and in addition to having pizza, I also ordered a pint of Bison Organic Honey Basil. It definitely* has a honey taste. So sweet and so good. 8:01PM PT
*20150221: I figured out today that "eeginiteo4" was intended to be "definitely".

Having forgotten that I already tried the Bison Organic Honey Basil, I returned to Sliver today and ordered another pint of it.
It has a hazy orange color and the head quickly dissipated. It has a sweet smell with what appears to be a mix of honey and orange. There's some slight carbonation in the mouthfeel with a sugary, honey taste. There is, however, a slight bitterness. Overall, it's very refreshing. Unfortunately, I don't detect the basil. The beer leaves a nice lacing on the glass. 6:42PM PT
The beer was really good; I liked the taste. It was like a sweet-tasting pale ale without the typical pale ale taste. Maybe the basil had an underlying effect of the taste. 7:04PM PT

Honey Basil + Food
Pizza-MargheritaDraft Magazine recently featured our Honey Basil Ale in its publication stating that, "If there was ever a beer made for pizza—this is it". And we couldn't agree more! In fact, it is a perfect match for anything that uses basil as an ingredient. From Italian food to Thai cuisine, Honey Basil is one the most dynamic and food friendly beers in the market. Recommended pairings include pizza, pad Thai, ceviche, salads, steamed mussels, shrimp scampi, tomato sauce, pesto, grilled chicken, crème brulée, goat cheese, Burrata, mozzarella. For an interesting twist, substitute Honey Basil Ale for soda water in cocktails. Check out the Honey Basil Gin Fizz or the Honey Basil Julep for recipe ideas!
