OK, well if by honey style beer you mean beez neez or bee sting, then you're talking about a wheat beer with honey in it. Go for a light style of honey, like yellow box, clover or citrus. There is a beez neez clone recipe kicking around on here, the basics are: lightly hopped, 1/3 wheat malt, 1/3 barley malt, 1/3 honey.
Another brew that's worth considering is Wassa's Honey Porter, again the recipe is on here somewhere. There's also a honey maple recipe that uses honey and maple syrup.
You certainly don't use only honey as if you did that you'd be making mead, not beer.
w00t!
