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".

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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,
