A hazy amber beer with a disappearing off-white head. The aroma is sweet with hints of honey, while the flavor is sweet with strong notes of honey leading to a dry finish.

Why was I under the impression that this was a tangerine fruit beer? It’s cloudy and hazy orange with a creamy fine-bubbled silky tan head. You can certainly pick up the honey in the nose, only it’s more like fuzzy skinned apricots and peaches blended with honey. Flavor-wise it’s less of the honey character and a lot more of this dry marshmallow and prickly tangerine. Overall it’s wonderfully refreshing and very delicious. A little too sugared towards the end makes it likeable in small doses, but other than that I’m a fan.

2005 Boulder Strong Ale Fest. Body is hazy medium amber. Aroma is lightly malty (cookie), lightly hoppy (flowers, orange, lemon), lightly yeasty (dough), with a note of honey. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, lively carbonation. An enjoyable honey-dominated sweet strong ale. Would definitely drink again.

Draught at 4th Annual Wildland Firefighters Benefit & Festival at the Pumphouse in Longmont CO. Pours coppery sunset with a small off-white head with lined lacing. Aroma is fruity (peach, apple) and honey, malt (meal, cake). Malty honey and fruit flavor, medium sweetness and meal, cake notes. Light bodied and creamy that goes dry.

Tap at the brewpub - I quite liked this one - unlike most braggots, the mead adds a nice honey flavor, without adding too much sweetness - the floral, herbal, wheaty character of the beer remains quite distinct, and compliments the honey character quite well - alcohol is warming, but not overpowering - actually quite refreshing for its strength - a bit of apricot and lingering herbs - very good.
