| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Nov 6, 2003 Unattractive, fizzy orange caramalt aroma...Citrusy hops and fruity malt hug the carbonation to merge with the emerging, authentic honey...Honey bitterness hastily vanishes into the void of an aftertaste...

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 14, 2009 Pint at the brewery. Pale golden pour with a thin white head. The nose is quite light but with a distinct, soft sweetness. A bit of toastiness and a kiss of lightly floral hops. A touch of lingering sweetness. It’s pretty light, but it’s pretty balanced and drinks well. muzzlehatch (4427), Burlington, Vermont, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 13, 2001 Am I drinking a different brew than the rest of you? Do they save the best for out-of-staters? Very average, in my book; honey AROMA is there, but flavor definitely lacking, with palate too hoppy/bitter for what it’s (I think) trying to be. Ya want good VT beer, go with McNeills. Rciesla (3830), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
