Sensational! a delicious belgian with a smooth sweetness and honey flavor...there’s also a strange flavor i cant determine that gives it an almost charcoal or "oily" taste,yeah it’s odd,but works extremely well,truly unique

250ml bottle. Pours a light hazy orange with a small creamy white head. Aroma of yeast, honey and malt. moderately sweet with minimal bitterness. Unusual. Worth trying.

(Bottle, 0.75 l - BBE 02/2013, at Pikkulintu, 20120525) The beer poured orange and cloudy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had honey, grass and malts - like pils with honey. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were sweetness, honey, spices, sourness, grass, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste has grass, spices, honey and bitterness. Quite unlike a saison I would assume a one to be.

Bottled. The honey and malt taste is very noticeable. It has a medium carbonation with a persistent froth. Presence of sedimentation. Dark amber colour. Very good.

2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Brown 25cl bottle, best before 09/2011 drank as my second honey beer (of four) during mid Nov 2010.
Poured into my ’La Chouffe’ tulip, it refused to give me any sort of head, so a still, slightly hazy, golden liquid sat in my glass, looking not too beery.
The smell was mildly of honey, some summery, floral notes too.
The taste was dry, yet with a heavy honey content, I couldn’t take to this beer at all. Strange brew from start to finish. The worst of the four honey beers I reviewed that night.

Hazy dark pour with a nice thick layer of white head. Has some meady honey notes on the aroma, slightly spicy and floral note, earthy hay and grass notes. Nice funk to it. Tastes of honey, lightly sweet, surprisingly dry with no noticable alcohol burn. Nice saison complexity with spice, hay, and floral flavors. Very nice.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 15/20
A very smooth honey saison.
Nice color with not so much of a foam.
Aromas of honey and malt...same as taste with a sweet smooth aftertaste, from the honey.
Very balanced beer...
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
’10 bottle. Clear, light golden orange pour with a massive froth of a white head. Aroma is clove, honey, esters, a floral spice almost like sage, and dry spice through the finish. Taste is a melange of dry, muffled spices, honey, lavendar, pepper, clove, and a touch of sweetness in the finish. Clean, predominately dry mouthfeel but the yeast character seems to add weight. Wonderful combination of honey and spices. Great beer.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours hazy golden orange with a huge fluffy white head. Strong aromas of honey and citrus fruit dominate. bits of sweet pastries and banana start to emerge as it warms and even some earthy pepper aromas as well. Flavor is bittersweet however more on the bitter side with a nice sour kick towards the end before giving way to a bitter finish. Mouthfeel is crisp and clean with a long aftertaste.
