I thought Bkink: bloesem was a nice example of honey beer, this one is just even better.
pours hazy golden, thick white head.
aroma is floral with a thick honey nose that is just sweet and enjoyable.
taste, honey, and a lot of honey adding to a nice sweet palate that becomes almost sticky.
smooth, borderline mead like with some floral hops.
I am getting a lot of natural touch here that just give the palate the impression the honey was just collected.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 24, 2009 Bottle. A hazy dark golden beer with a medium sized and quite persistent white head. The aroma ha s aquite good maltiuness and some hops with notes of flowers and some spices and fruits. The flavour is highly sweet with light acidity. Not totally balanced and a bit cloying after some sips, but it has some decent flowery notes. Medium body. lively carbonation, quite long sweet finish with light bitterness. Too sweet for my liking, but drinkable.
