Apiary was brewed with New Jersey grown and malted barley and buckwheat with the addition of New Jersey blueberry blossom honey. We used a traditional step mash to drive a crisp, dry profile, balanced by the bittering addition of aged whole leaf noble hops. Apiary presents with a honeycomb aroma balanced by a dry fermentation and high effervescence. The extended conditioning time pushes aromatics of hay and light funk, grapefruit, spice, toasted brioche and honey.

Bottle shared by Max at the RBWG Grand tasting, thanks! Pours a hazy yellow with a white head that dissipates slowly ot the edges. Aroma has a bit of honey with some sweet fruit, light bitterness, citrus and a hint of flora. Flavor has more of a grass and citrus note with a bit of flora and light fruits.

Bottle shared by jcwattsrugger: Poured a hazy yellow to orange with white head. Nice funky aroma with hints of floral and honey. Nice smooth citrus feel that I think comes from the honey, some spice undertones, and a dry rye finish.

Location: 750 ml bottle from Hoboken Vine, 12/7/13
Aroma: The nose is yeasty, with some grains, straw, tropical fruit, a little honey, and grass
Appearance: A hazed yellow-gold color with a large, thick, frothy white head and coating lace
Flavor: The flavor is very balanced with a nice mix of yeast, spice, funk, honey, and grass
Palate: The feel is smooth and clean with a soft-to-average carbonation, and a clean, dry finish
Overall Impression: This is a really nice saison. The use of honey accents the beer, but doesn't overpower is with sweetness. It has a nice, clean funkiness that also doesn't overpower the underlying beer. All in all, it is very well balanced and very drinkable.

Bottle from the source. Hazy golden yellow color, huge white ice cream cone head with good retention and spider web lacing. Aroma of dusty conwebs in barn corners. Taste is funky raw white bread dough, light spice, black and white pepper. Very tasty.
