Pours clear, amberblonde, good white head. Smell is fithy, sweat and honey. Yuck ! Taste is equally bad. Like honey has gone expired and started to rot. I was not capable of taking a second sip.... What the hell was the brewer thinking when this was finished? he must have known this was awefull...

Saison-like honey beer for Les 4 Pavés. Very firm, rocky, off-white, sticky, stable head, colour soft peach blonde with yellow hue, hazy. Versatile aroma, unusual, with honey of course, but also caramel, ginger, earth, tomato, dry white wine, hops, lemon, mint. Fruity, sweetish taste, soft mouthfeel, honey subtly dressed over the palate but not too dominant and balanced by a ’wild’ sourishness, spicy yeastiness and dry, hoppy finish. Honey beers should not be cloyingly sweet in spite of what the name suggests, and this is a very fine example in my personal view - as are other Wallonian honey beers like Saint-Monon au Miel or (obviously) Dupont Bière de Miel.

25 cl. bottle @ home. Procured from Willems. BBF 12/2015. Dark amber touch brown & red appearance with a bubbly white head only on the sides. Nose is thick synthetic air refresher honey, odd & frankly off-putting, strange fare. Taste is thick yeast, synthetic honey, air refresher, caramel, strange synthetic feel, sugar, strange and I am not a bit funny. Too many of these honey beers taste like strange synthetic fare. I suppose getting a beer to taste of NZ honey is impossible given that all the sugar etc. would ferment out so we get this weird stuff.

250ml bottle from Sugaya, served in a trappist glass. 7.5% Served in a chalice, a cloudy honey brown with a thin off-white head. The aroma is a potent fruity wine like smell somewhat sour but I guess it does have slightly honey sweetness to it. It has a smooth mouthfeel but the body is a bit too light. The taste is very fruity, sweet with a zesty effervescent light carbonation. My wife liked it, I did too - this is a sweet tasty beer not the most complex but very solid with nothing to betray the 7.5% alcohol punch. My biggest criticism would be the light body but that is just quibbling...

25/I/14 - 75cl bottle @ home - BBE: 2016 (2014-126) Thanks to Dries for sharing the bottle!
Little sloudy dark orange beer, irregular off-white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: lots of honey, very floral kind of honey, bit sweet. MF: lots of carbon, medium body. Taste: lots of honey, yet not too sweet, bit floral, sour touch, bitter hops. Aftertaste: some citrus, creamy floral honey, bitter hops. Decent honey beer, not as sweet as one would fear.

25 bottle. Ambrée claire, col blanc. Arôme de malt léger, houblon et une pointe de miel. En bouche, bière au profile malté restant assez douce avec l’ajout de miel. Levure est présente et le tout se termine sur une palais sec et grains. Une pointe de caramel et d’épice venant principalement de la levure. Peu rappeler les fruits secs, le tout fini sur ce profile mielleux et doux de caramel. Décevante et sauvée par l’ajout du miel.

Bottle. Pours light brown. Nose of herbs, honey, yeast and muted old citrus rinds. Taste of old orange peel, yeast and herbs. Light body for a strong.

(25cl bottle) Hazy, yellow colour with a short foamy white head. Sourish sweet pale malty and slightly wheaty nose with a distinctive touch of honey. Sweet flavour, medium to full bodied with a soft carbonation. Pale malt character upfront with notes of honey and coriander, the latter especially towards the finish which is also slightly tart and bitter. Not one of my favourite honey brews (09.II.09).
