Commercial Description:
When you make a pot of coffee, but only use half the water, you get some pretty rich coffee. That’s the approach we took with our latest offering. OBP Squared, with half the water, has 11% alcohol by volume - twice that of original OBP.
The result is a bold, distinct taste of its own. Made with twice as much real orange blossom honey, all-natural ingredients and no refined sugar, it really is the new king bee of beers.

Distinctive orange blossom flavor. A twinge of citric tartness helps to almost totally conceal the high ABV. Pretty good stuff.

12oz bottle a light orange topped with a small white head. A pretty cool aroma of sweet orange and honey. tast of more orange and some of the sweetness. it is crazy that this brew is 11%. You can’t pick it up at all. Pretty cool.

Honey, cereal grains, sweet alcohol in the aroma. Pours blonde with no head. Watery, honey flavors, cereal grains, with strong alcohol in the finish.

12oz bottle shared courtesy of zrrbrrt. Poured a deeper golden color with a smaller sized hite head. Aromas of honey comb, orange peels, and some grassiness. Tastes of honey, citrus, and orange peels. I generally do not care for honey beers, but this one was a nice surprise. Alchohol well hidden.

Poured a clear dark golden color with a small, white head that left some nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of honey, citrus fruits, vanilla, some caramel, and a bit of alcohol. Taste was sweeter, with honey, and the incredible orange blossom honey giving a great citrusy flavor, with a bit of orange peel, toast, and just the lightest alcohol in the finish. Also finished a bit dry. Really nice beer here.

Thanks to Josh for sharing this one. Pours a lightly hazy golden orange with a smaller bubbly white head. Aroma of orange peel, honey notes, earthy, some light alcohol, doughy, vanilla and some light citrus. Flavor of honey, orange notes, bready, sweet, dry and light alcohol.
