Aug 10, 2008 75cl bottle.
Pours an opaque blonde with thick white head.
Aroma is of honey and yeast.
Taste is loaded with honey and grains. Leaves an aftertaste of malt (barley), lightly sugary and fruity (some orange peels).
I applaud the idea of using the biologic concept and local produces.

Jul 28, 2008 First time I’ve had this one. I’m certainly not in the habit of searching out honey beers but this was excellent. Grainy, cerealy malt with lovely floral, meadowy touches (the honey?), and mushroomy, mossy, white peppery yeast character. There’s a touch of honey and vanilla to the lean malt flavour mixed with coconut phenols. Light and breezy mouthfeel, with only slight bitterness but very dry. Lovely stuff, really good. And it’s biologique too which eases my middle-class guilt about beer miles (bloody heavy bottles!!) somewhat.

Jul 17, 2008 750 ml bottle at Monks--7/15/08.....Cloudy dark golden body...fluffy off-white head on pour, then it goes away...a bit stinky at first...but ok... almost perfumy...flavors of light honey, birch beer...as it opens more honey in the taste with some added banana and clove...very light and refreshing, not very carbonated...also has tones of sour and a smokiness to the overall...a nice stickiness left on the lips...rating made possible by Frank and Paul

Jul 15, 2008 Bottle, shared by bstill, I think. Thanks Brian! Nose had some definite honey, wheat, yeast, and a bit of butter. Flavor was similar with a lot of yeast and honey. Pretty good, but not my favorite saison flavors.
