Imbibed on tap in December 2002. Aroma of honey and mowed grass (faint). A clear yellowish amber color with a small white head. Hoppy flavor with a honey aftertasted, followed by faint maltiness. Medium carbonation and mouthfeel.

Has virtually no smell, at least that I can detect. Taste is indeed honey, o trace of alcohol in the taset, which is odd considering the high percentage. A little bitter at the end. Alright but not great.

Pours golden clear with a timid head. Almost no aroma, some grass notes there. Spiced taste with some light sweetness and lightly sour flavour. Light body, thin feel, soft carbonation, short finish. Whatever.

Taste: Honey, malts with some hop bitterness in the finish A good beer, my least favorite beer they had on tap. I was surprised to find out after I drank it that is 8.5% abv.

Buller Pub, Recoleta. Part of 6 beer tasting tray. Probably a little too sweet, even for a honey beer. Golden yellow colour, not cloudy, white head.

Golden color. Sweet malt flavor. Smooth beer with some character, but a little too sweet.

Coloração dourada translúcida, com espuma branca. O alto teor alcoólico está bem inserido no conjunto. Presença de malte, lúpulo e um suave adocicado (do mel). Final levemente amargo e doce. Aroma agradável, de malte e mel. Leve floral. Combinação interessante.

on tap-pours a thin white head and pale yellow/yellow color. Aroma is grain, honey. Taste is sweet light malt/grain, honey, then a short lived sharp bitterness which fades to floral/spicy hops (continental), some yeast. Mild carbonation.

Tap at brewpub in Buenos Aires. Yellow color with a white head. Nice honey and citrus aroma but pleasantly sublte in flavor. Quite and elegant flavor and nicely hopped. A real surprise and a delight.

Recoleta location. Very bright golden appearance, transparent. Aroma of honeyed green apple skins. Taste of alcohol is obvious. Shades of champagne in sour fruits and white grapes. Green apple character is noisy, sticky, close to cloying. Coats the mouth with a resinous sugar glaze. A fair effort.

Flat, golden color, small white head. Aroma is sweet, flowery, honey and peach. Flavor is just of a regular beer, no traces of honey.
