Poured from 650mL bottle @ Weathered 2023. Hazed gold with small white head. Some honey and slightly Bready malt. Inoffensive, but nothing special.

Clear gold body and minimal foam. Kind of a narrow apple juice aroma, seems odd since there's no apple here. Taste is a sweet fruity honey, soft wheat grainn maybe, finishing smootg with no sign of the alcohol. No complexity here but quite drinkable.

650mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Nose brings out mostly fermented out honey, with some toasted caramel and bready malt. Flavour is surprisingly lacking depth for a 10% strong ale -- there's fermented out wildflower honey, toasted caramel and bready malt. Light palate, with little depth. Nothing wrong with this; but there's also little right with it. Lacklustre.

Tasting at Erik's
Hazy golden colour. Smell of perfume and almonds, alcohol, disinfectant. Lean mouthfeel, sweetish, a lot of higher alcohols and some Band Aid, touch of stone fruit.
Not very good.

Bottle. Golden-amber. Thick head. There's some toastiness, with a light floral honey note. This has a fair bit of sweetness. Just a touch of toastiness, caramel. Not half bad, actually. Balanced.
