LinusStick (1831), Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 28, 2007 Unique and delicious. Aroma was a bit weak but hints of wheat and yeast come through. Taste is typical Belgian with an emphasis on spice and coriander. The honey is very pronounced but not to the point where it is sweet. This beer says "spring". Magjayran (1379), Durham, North Carolina, USA Mar 27, 2007 Fizzy yellow beer with a huge white head. Hints of honeycomb, challah, and coriander in the aroma. Honey flavor imparts a nice sweetness on an otherwise unremarkable spiced wheat beer. I think the addition of honey also tricks you into thinking this beer has a thicker mouthfeel than it actually does. Nothing particularly special here. MesandSim (5790), London, Greater London, England Mar 10, 2007 A Mes rate:
Stunned to discover we had not already rated this and the Winter Bok so we squeezed a couple of quick ones in at ZBF. Cloudy amber coloured with a very white head that settles quickly. Sweet and yeasty all round with a slightly spiced finish. Not the best honey beer, certainly not the worst. So so. biz82 (1328), austin, Texas, USA Mar 7, 2007 Clear amber. Super floral aroma with belgian caramel malt and pear esters. Clean candy and fruit flavor with a meaty note. Spritzy mouthfeel. Crisp and easy to drink with well hidden alcohol. Diogène (544), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Mar 2, 2007 Bottle, clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma is sweet with honey, fruits and flowers and alcohol. Taste is sweet with honey, cloves and flowers. Maria (6056), Thisted, Denmark Mar 1, 2007 This warm golden blond has a nice head that leaves nice lacing. The aroma is sweetish with notes of fruit. The flavour is sweet, but not sticky, and the warmer it gets, the more dominant is the honey flavour. The finish is nice bitter/acidic and gives a nice counterweight to the honey. EHSRanders (1121), Randers C, Denmark Feb 24, 2007 Bottle. Golden colour with creamy white head. Sweet honey flavor. A little saur. Full body. doubelknv3 (559), Illinois, USA Feb 4, 2007 Full body taste is immediate. Honey / Hoppy finish, but not too sweet. This is not a session Belgian for me, I prefer Kwak or Karmellier Tripel. Cheers,
