Honey Pot - Rum Barrel-Aged
Barreled Souls Brewing Company

Had the 2019 B2 Variation - 14.2% - wasn't really the bomb or anything, but still a good quality wheat wine that blows most others away…The weird thing is that I hadn't rated the 2015 B1 bottle, yet I added the picture, and know that the bottle I just drank had the same wax, yet a slightly different wax "dip". Oh well, guess I forgot to rate the first one...

Look - no head, clear bronze color
Smell - carmelly, rummy, and very pervadive
Taste - a bit flat and wheaty, carmelly and rummy - nice!
Feel - a bit flat and thin
Overall - pretty nice! Very boozy. Cheers!

 

 

 

Goddamn. This beer made me finally sign up for BA. I've been drinking a lot of beer over the years, but this is something else. It does sort of convince me that the future of beer is in cellared malty brilliance. The honey and rum and malts meld perfectly into this velvet buttery tastescape, which, once in the grasps of, one cannot help but surrender to deep amber waves and softly sung fermented melodies of Honey Pot. I'm not joking! This is a beer that starts religions. This is a beer that moves the soul! It's like the first time that I ever danced, letting loose with reckless sweating abandon. I've known a woman, or two, or 100 in my time, but never, has my palate been seduced, lulled, and swept over by such a majestic caress. Kudos, Barreled Souls! You have begat love in a bottle....

Deep, clear red with almost no head. Slick but minimal lacing. Smells like rum and honey, tastes like rum and honey. The honey is more up front, sweet but not overpowering, and the alcohol is not very present until you get the rummy aftertaste. Very warming, not overpowering, and delicious. Very low carbonation and oily mouthfeel.
