Most honey that I see containing a lot of pollen is the super just above the brood area in light combs freshly drawn...combs on the sides are generally much lighter in color.  There is the occasional packed pollen cell...but those cells usually do not extract.  I do occasionally uncap and extract honey from darker combs, but find that the higher they are above the brood chamber during the nectar flow the less pollen in them and thus lighter colored honey.  Later on toward summer they are work nectars that produce very dark honey so hard to tell about pollen content.
