Barbar Belgian Honey Ale

Brewed by Brasserie Lefebvre
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Rebecq-Quenast, Belgium

A light amber beer with only a slight head. It has an aroma of fruit as ales often have. The flavor is slightly sour and that of ale. An OK beer.

(Bottle 33 cl) If you expect something sticky and sweet from a honey beer, this proves you wrong. Pale golden (honey golden?) with an average white head. Some fruity, spicy notes in the rather full body. Slight bitter finish. Decent although not overly exciting. 161296

Bottled. Cloudy golden with a lot of sediment, no head. Yeasty and honeyish nose. Sweet and mild deceivingly soft for such a strong beer. The flavour consists of layer after layer of honey. Special and quite tasty, but one-dimensional.

ZBF2008: From tap. Pours clear and yellow with a dense white head. Light herbal/butterish aroma. Flavour is mild sweetend and with a light herbal touch. I don’t really sense honey here but guess it is in the herbal notes and the sweetness. Ends mild spiced and caramel malt lingering.

Bottle. Clear golden color with a longlasting white head. Sweet yeasty malty, spicy honey aroma. Sweet malty honey flavor with some hints of yeast. Aftertaste is malty.

Bottle, 8%. Perfumy, flowery aroma. Seemingly clear amber colour. Small white head. The flavour is a little sweet with flower and soap notes which might come from hops. Gets a little plasticky. Slightly rough bitterness.

Bottled. Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Honey, coriander and some malts in aroma. Sour orange and coriander mainly in flavour, with hints of honey. Quite flavourful beer.

Bottle. Clear golden coloured with a white head. Sweet aroma of fruits and spices. Sweet fruity flavour with notes of spices, citrus and alcohol. Alcoholic finish.
