Have been thinking of making my first Honey Beer and just picked up a cheap Wanders Munich Lager kit and figured it would be an OK base to use.

Bit I'm stuck on what flavour hop to use???
Any suggestions???
Not after anything too hoppy, just something to boost the kit and compliment the honey, not overpower it.
Was thinking Saaz and Hallertauer


Munich Lager Kit
1kg Honey
???? Flavour hop boiled/steeped for 10 or 15 minutes
US05 yeast cake @ 18deg for 2 weeks
Made up to 15litres
Bottle conditioned for at least 8 weeks
 
Maybe summer saaz will work- a tiny 60 min addition and another at flameout to take advantage of the citrus flavours that come with it to compliment the honey.
