Bottle shared at Farewell to Ferndale share. Thanks to whoever brought this one! Pours a clearish honey gold with nice legs. Aromas of honey, pear blossom and citrus as it warms. Palate is similar. Not a lot going on but enjoyable.

25cl bottle pours a leggy amber. No head. Pizza sauce nose, herbal. Flavor is WAY better, maple, butterscotch, booze. Pancakey. Oily finish.

Bottle thanks to stevoj pours out golden topped with no head. Nose is sweet honey some grain. Taste is more of the nice sweet honey a touch of grain.

Bottle from Tavour. Golden pour, tiny ring of bubbles. Aroma is first a bit acetone, then honey. Sweet, light citrus. More honey, warmth, nice finish.
