This Belgian ale features local honey, a soft sweetness and just the right touch of spice from the yeast.

Clear golden color with a modest white head and some nice lacing.
The aroma is light malt, cloves, honey and hints of floral hops.
The taste is likewise lightly sweet malt, cloves, honey and some spicey notes from Belgian yeast, notes of floral hops, very nice combination.
The body is light/medium, carbonation is moderate, very drinkable.
Altogether, this is a very enjoyable and tasty brew, light and refreshing, very worthwhile.

Love this beer. Has a little bit of farmhouse ale taste to it. The honey is there, but also some floral, and citrus. Pretty golden color and a small head which disappears quickly. But I love this beer.

Poured from a can. Golden in color with a small head and some lacing. Smells of malt, grain, clove and honey. Taste follows the smell, I really liked how the flavors of this beer complement each other. Very good

On tap at the brewery. Very industrial, nondescript location. Pretty tasty beer.

From can. Lots of separation. Clear after 90% poured but ten some deep hazy, insoluble liquid came after. The honey sweetness with a Belgian twist on this pale ale just didn't work well for me.

On tap in KC
Pours hazed, with a plum hue. Leaves delicate lacing behind
Subtle malts and honey on the nose
Soft ripe fruits, Belgian yeasts and again honey coming to mind
Pleasing, super easy drinking and well worth a try.
