I agree that priming with honey usually will have little effect on the
taste/aroma, but it will depend on the honey. Fresh buckwheat honey, for
example from a local beekeepr that has been gently pasteurized (not
boiled!!!) should add some flavor/aroma to a lighter beer. Using the
non-descript honey from the local supermarket is bound to have no affect,
though.
