20061007 Tap at Kennett. Shed Biere de Miel with Brett, I guess this is it. Another winner from The Shed. Pale, hazed gold. I may be interpolating floral notes because of brett. Nicely dried out quencher with citrus and horseblanket notes.

Another Shed beer courtesy of weeare138. Crystal clear, shiny gold body with a filmy white head. Spicy lemon and honey aroma. Has peppery notes like an Abbey Tripel. Flavor has clove-like phenolic elements and residual honey characters, but not excessively sweet. Modest, sticky mouthfeel. Solid and interesting.

Another fantastic one at NEBF. Expressive, yet soft and inviting nose with wild flowers, soft, pillowy honey and grains, sticky orange juice, clean Belgian yeast and artfully done citrus peel and light spicing. A light yellow fruitiness graces the back of the nostrils while a bit more poignant pepperiness is noted as well. The flavor was wonderfully full and succulent. Wildflower honey is definitely present, as you let the liquid sit in your mouth. Lavendar and vanilla blossoms, light peppery spices and sweaty hops. A hint of limey brett is noted on the end, along with a lightly grainy malt. Mouthfeel is again spectacular, as in the regular saison. Dosent load up on meaty yeast or heavy spices, while the mouthfeel feels more like a real Belgian. Truly great stuff.

NEBF ’05 A lot of thinsg going on here, fruit,mainly citrus and spice. Mild brett? charcater possibly, with some funkiness. Quite nice, I’m wish it was a warmer summer day as this probably would be more thirst quenching then watching the snow fall from inside.

Much thanks to grassrootsVT... According to the brewer, Shaun E. Hill, this was made with 15% wildflower/clove honey, making for a nice spin on a "honey beer" aka biere de miel. Appears a cloudy gold with a small white cap. Streaks of spotty lacing are left behind in the glass. Smell is yeasty, bready, honey...outright addictive aroma in my opinion. The Chouffe yeast plays out nicely in this beer. Taste is of lemony zest, honey, sweet bready earthiness and perhaps a slight bit of tropical fruit salad buried in there. Mild hoppiness. Mouthfeel is a strongpoint as well with this beer. Yeasty, medium bodied, bready, semi-dry, and mildly carbonated. Drinkability is good! It’s about time that a U.S. brewery/brewpub gets bold and brews a version of this. Well done!
