Dark peach in color; the waiter served this with a very thin head (no lace).

Nice aromas of wild flowers. No honey smells though.

Hop comes through on the initial sip. This is quickly overwhelmed by a coy, unfermented honey. This is the sweetist beer I've ever had. The aftertaste is of the honey sugar. Given the sweetness, it's not surprising that this is a very full bodied beer.

I'd recommend it as an after dinner beer, but this is not one for a football game and wings.

Pours a cloudy orange-gold, no head or lacing at all.
Honey and grain aroma, quite sweet, fruity, toast.
Wheat like taste, pretty grainy overall but there is a lot of honey. Sweet, light toffee. Honey is stronger in the aftertaste.
Medium feel, well carbonated feels spritzy in the mouth. A pretty basic beer punched up with the honey, not really a taste I'd go for very often.
