UPDATED: SEP 17, 2008 An unclear golden beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of honey. The flavor is sweet with primary notes of honey, but also with light notes of straw and malt, leading to a dry and bitter finish where the honey note lingers.

UPDATED: JUN 12, 2005 (Bottle 75 cl) Bought in a farmstore in Surice in Wallonia. I’ve never seen it anywhere else. Seems quite flat, not a lot of "plop" in the bottle. But there’s plenty of life in it anyway. Color is light amber, decent head, unfiltered. at first quite sweet from the added honey, but quite quickly there’s an apparent bitterness as well. It creates a nice balance. Pleasant and harmonic honeybeer. 060804

25 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a lacing white head. Honey to herbal spiced and floral aroma. Floral and yeasty flavour with a dense dry phenolic note. Ends dry and floral. Interest and different.

bottled@Fonefan (8.0%). Hazy golden colour, small white creamy head. Aroma is honey, grass and some mild yeast. Flavour is fruits, some honey and mild herbal and flowery notes. Strange, and a bit out of balance.

Bottle at Theis & Mette. Hazy orange coloured with a medium sized white head. Fruity aroma dominated by honey with notes of berries and flowers. Fruity flavour of honey and unriped berries with notes of hops. Fruity finish of honey. The honey is too dominating.

Bottle, 8%. Distinct honey aroma, some wax, and a citric hint. Cloudy yellow colour. Citric flavour, distinct honey notes, flowers and perfume. Strange but OK.

Hazy blond color; wonderful creamy head, persistent. Excellent Triple, round mouthfeel, with a light sweetness, complemented by the bitter taste of honey; very light herbs and sour wood. A clear spicy character makes of this a pretty complex beer.
