Love honey beers! That said, this had some seriously sweet fruity elements to it...peaches, light berries, and then you add this mild saison flavor in the midst, and it works. Very light all over as far as flavor, but they blend well. On top of everything is this extremely sweet and tender honey flavor, which personally did it for me. Liked this a lot, and was not overpriced!!!
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Clear darker amber/gold pour, fizzy off white head, quickly diminishing. Sweet malts, candy sugar, honey, slightly metallic, and some fruit and bread. Another one of those sugar bomb American Belgian style. Not my thing.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
WOW. Pours a darker, hazy amber with a light brown head that quickly dissipates. Aroma is sweet, and slightly sour. Lots of caramel and malt in the nose. Taste is rich, and mouth coating with sweet malty goodness, a yeasty funk, and sweet dark fruits, even a little citrus kick at the end. FInish is long and complex, with rich, sweet malts giving way to an almost tart, and somehow dry finish. This is a very unique, and very, VERY good beer.

Swing top 16 oz bottle from "Lifesource" Salem. $5.49
Actually a nice slightly hazy bright copper hued ale with a small yet persistent off white head.
Reasonable ’Belgian" type yeast aromas, slight barnyard, earthy..with a tinge of banana and bubble gum.
Taste is mainlly malty with some hay and dough and clove. emi sweet i guess from the honey.
Quite enjoyable on the palate..soft carbonation works well.
Overall not bad at all. i certainlly enjoyed.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Medium amber, off-white head that drops rapidly. Smells of spice, loads of sweet honey, earth, slightly metallic. Very mead like. Has a slightly viscous mouthfeel, but lacks the sugary mouthcoating quality that I dislike in mead. Sweet honey flavor. Spice, mustiness, and earth near the finish. A little too mead-like for my tastes, but surprisingly easy to drink.
