3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Appearance was clear golden with 1 finger creamy diminishing white head, spotty lace. Aromas where funky yeasts with the grapes shinning through upfront and citrusy hops married with the sweet biscuity caramelly honey malts. Taste was slight sweet honey malt upfront with the hops of grass pine and herbal coming through with warmth of the mild alcohol at the backend.Yeasts where slightly there. Palate was silky with creamy carbonation. Medium body with smooth long warming dryish finish. Interesting paring of grapes and beer...
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured from bottle into tulip, very transparent golden yellow. Little-to-no head, with no visible lacing. Smell is yeast, grape, white wine. Taste is semi-sweet upfront, yeasty in the middle, with a light bitter finish. I am getting a lot more alcohol as it begins to warm, but still hidden very well. Reminds me of pilsner bitterness and I am not really picking up the honey. High carbonation, crisp, almost champagne-like. Very refreshing, especially for 9% abv.

Tap at uno’s. Light golden pour. White wine aroma. Fizzy, grapes, white wine, champagne flavor. Not really my thing.

12oz bottle - pours gold with quickly diminishing white head and decent lacing. Nose is grapes and yeast. Wow, flavor is honey and pilsner-like hops. taste is sweet on the front end and slowly becomes bitter. Truly unique flavors. Too much like sweet wine for me. Would be nice with paté. I’m ambivalent on how to rate it overall, but will give it marks for originality, complexity and balance; however, I will subtract for the aftertaste and grape flavors.

Pours clear golden color with small head. Aroma of butter, fruits,cellar notes, honey and toffee. Flavor of butter, toffee, honey, malts, caramel, fruits, dry hay and spices. A nice mead-like brew where the honey isn’t too dominating. Has some czech pils elements also. Interesting.

355 ml bottle. Bottled 25.11.2010.
Pours a clear golden colour with a white thick head. Aroma of sweet malts, grassy hops and caramel. Flavour of sweet malts, grains, spices, grassy hops and honey, that surprisingly does not disturb even a bit. Medium bodied, oily mouthfeel and a sweet finish with alcohol, malts and light spices. Thinnish.

35,5 cl bottle @ home, bottled 25.10.2011
Aroma has honey and butter – feels like a bohemian pilsener with extra honey added. Flavour is a bit odd with sticky and sweet honey. Also hints of herbs. Could not locate the wine here, but beer and mead can be easily observed. Reminds me of VASP Hunajabock. Too sweet and too much honey.

330ml bottle from City Beer, San Francisco, CA
Bottled on 10/25/11 - Pours clear orange with a foamy white head. Aroma of Czech pils, butter, honey, spices and fruits. Lots of honey and meady notes in the taste, along with exotic fruits, spices, butter and hints of saffron. Finish is strong and stingy with some spicy and fruity notes. Quite untypical, but still tasty. Perhaps a bit unbalanced.
