Pours a hazy yellow-orange with a very thin head. Sweet honey aroma, not much else going on. I was nervous the flavor would be too sweet, but I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely a strong honey taste, very mead-like, but overall not as sweet as I was expecting and actually pretty enjoyable. Would I sit at a bar and pound these all night? Certainly not. But it is quite enjoyable in moderation.

Dec 20, 2009 12oz Bottle, aged 1 year: Clear gold w/ a small, quickly dissapating white head. Honey is dominant in the aroma w/ an almost pear-like scent lingering. Flavor is mostly honey w/ some vinous flavors & oddly enough, a corny sort of thing. Aroma gets more wine-like as it warms, flavor improves as well. Soft mouthfeel, a bit muddled. Alright, but I probably won’t buy it again...a one and done sort of beer.

Dec 12, 2009 12 ounce bottle at the tasting in SLC- Mikey’s big event. Pours a light bronze color with a medium white head. The aroma is sweet honey and odd herbal notes. The flavor was decent; easygoing honey and sweet almost funky grape notes. Spicy. Not bad.

Dec 7, 2009 Pours a very light light and clear orangish-straw color with a thin white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma is of strong fruit notes - primarily grapes, as well as hints of citrus and honey. Taste is dominated by the sweetness of grapes and honey, but balanced by bitter malts. Finishes very nicely.

Dec 4, 2009 Aroma is light sweet honey. Pours slightly cloudy golden, thin head. Sweet, prunish flavour, alcohol finish. Mid-range body. Rather have a 90 min IPA.

Dec 1, 2009 I had this from a bottle. It smells sweet and tastes the same. The grapes make up a lot of what I taste in this beer.
