Retired? Don’t think so. Had this on tap at GABF 2009. Didn’t really live up to the super-high ratings. Bright golden color with a small white head. Aroma is sweet honey, sweet white wine, and light fruits. Flavor is sweet white wine and mead (well I guess it is partially a mead), pale malt, apple, pear, and booze. Good but a bit boozy for my tastes. Maybe the first release was better. Palate somewhat boozy with medium body and carbonation. Some alcohol warmth.

This must have come out of retirement because they had it at the NJ Craft Brewers Fest. Great aroma. Wonderful sweet taste. Nice finish. I hope they make more.

Only had a sample of this long forgotten brew, but my notes speak well of it. Heavy on the abv, but the sweet backbone of this superb brew masks it very well. Unfortunate it was a limited affair, maybe again someday. Exceptional

This is a strong ale, almost like mead. i had this a couple of years back at the New jersey Craft brewers festival and I loved it. It has a sweet aroma. Its golden in color. Its great. Strong taste. I highly recommend it.

I have had this at the New Jersey Craft Brewers Festival a couple of years ago. It was so good. Almost like a mead, its a strong ale. Very nice. Nice amber color and sweet.

Just had a small sample off the handpump. Very sweet aroma with a (and all apologies to Triumph for this reference) Coors Light color. Tasted very much like a Gurtzinwaimer. Interesting.

Very smooth, suprisingly so for such a high alcohol content - 10.5. Gold in color, sweet in flavor. Unbelievable beer. The only lost points would be for aroma. Aroma was a bit lacking should have been a bit fruitier.

Bright yellow appearance, of course a honey-type aroma to it, very strong taste, but very good
