Okay is a honey beer made from a blend of two golden worts produced in April and August 2019.

Fermentation took place in white Burgundy barrels and ex-cider barrels from Ross-on-Wye Cider and Perry Company. The beer in the two cider barrels was amazingly soft and full bodied. The beer in the white Burgundy barrels was light and creamy, but with enough acidity to bring balance.

Raw heather honey from Heather Hills Farm in the Scottish Highlands was added just prior to bottling. This provided sugar for conditioning as well as trapping delicate, earthy aromatics in the bottle.

Clear golden colour with quick fading head. Aroma and flavour have pleasant funkiness. Really dry and woody. Subtle citric apple. Growing tannins. Excellent.

Finally home, super delish oaky sweet honey apple funk. Maybe my favorite of the whole set off etre. Cider notes meet white grape and honey deliciousness balanced real nice

Bottle. Mills online shop. Moderate haze on a gingery gold. Sturdy off white foam stays the course. Nose has baked dessert apple. Vinous oak. Twangy brett. Old hop leaf. Missus gets the honey, but I don’t. Taste is tart and quite dry. Decent quench of tang here. Beautiful mouthfeel is soft and massaging. Drinks so easy. Juicy and tart, with minimal acidity. Juicy and tart finish. Just another world class bottle of beer.
