Mar 11, 2009 750 ml. bottle courtesy of Steve E. Yellow gold pour with lots of floaties, foamy, quickly dissipating white head, and littel lace. Floral, fruity, and vinous nose, some od aroma that I can’t really identify. Light body and carboantion, and an unexpected stickiness. Sweet without any bitterness to speak of. Unusual to say the least. Seems that with DFH it’s either or home run or a strikeout, and I’m afraid that his is the latter.

Mar 1, 2009 Compliments of Steve, pours from 750 ml bottle a murky, cloudy yellow-orange with a small white head. Aroma’s sweet and yeasty along with honey, fruit (grapes) and light spices. Flavour of honey foremost followed by various fruit (grapes, citrus and more), caramel malt and some spices -- it’s difficult to describe, like mead meets white wine? An OK beer, but very odd.

Feb 23, 2009 Pours a cloudy orange-gold with a short-lived white head. Odd sweet aroma, kumquats, maraschino cherry, candied citrus peel and cantaloupe. Wheaty and sweet with notes of citrus, a bit watery, orange juice (with pulp) mimosa, light spice. Creamy chewy body with good carbonation. Excellent! Well executed and engaging.

Feb 3, 2009 Bottle. Poured honey-amber with a bubbly white head. Aroma was carbonation, honey, vinous, european hops (golding maybe), caramel, and slightly licorice. Flavor was mellifluous licorice, vinous, berries, and caramel. Palate was creamy and very warming. Unfortunately the carbonation aroma was reminiscent of Natty lite, but it was an otherwise decent brew.

Feb 1, 2009 Bottle with Butters and sixfootsix at the 3rd Cellar Reduction. 07 bottle. Pours a white head with a white grape nose and a golden body. Tastes similar with a faint hop presence and something sickly sweet that I cannot place. It is wierd, not what I expected, but I dig it.
