Great brew. Nice butterscotch honey flavor that almost tastes like they melted a sugar daddy into a golden ale. Superb flavor and the overall balance is better at cellar temp. Different but excellent.

Good honey brews are hard to come by, but this one is superb. Wonderful honey aroma with a sweet and delicate flavour. Well done!

20th Anniversary Limited Release! 22oz brown glass pry-top. Date stamp on neck 060209. Appearance: Poured into a Long Trail Imperial pint. Thick bone white stiff head on top of a crystal clear amber beer. Nose: Some sweet honey notes, wild flowers, light biscuity note. Palate: Medium-bodied and sweet with honey up front. The honey fades into English ale-like malt flavors, and rounds out. The finish picks up an odd bitter note, doesn’t seem like hop bitterness, more earthy and twig-like bitterness. Notes: An easy going summer sipper. Nothing fancy, but fairly smooth and drinkable. FFO Magic Hat’s Hocus Pocus.

A very fine summer brew. Has a lot more body than most of the lighter summer brews.

Pours deep gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes leaving spotted lacing. Honey and malt aromas. Soft to flat with honey and caramel. Lasting slight pepper and citrus finish. Chuggable.

Pours gold with a nice white head. Smells of sweet malt and fruity with some peppery splashes. Tastes of sweet malt, some pepper, some fruity hints on the finish.

Bottle. Aroma of crackery malt with a hint of hops. Flavor the same. Honestly never got the slightest bit of honey, seems to have fermented out completely or something. Fairly dull, but still pleasant to drink for me.
