Bottle shared with tiggmtl, Muzzlehatch and Olivier on 11/5/05. Pours a yellow-beige with a light auburn hue. Plenty of off-white head that is very quickly receding to a ring, creating no lacing. Aroma shows sryrupy sweet caramel, a faint whiff of veggies and maybe a touch of vanilla cream or buttercream. Flavor has light breadiness, but is mostly a sweet caramel and "honey" flavor. It’s not the worst honey flavor I’ve tasted in a honey beer, by far. The flavor, while not complex, and not really a real malted grains flavor, is actually discernable. The body is medium to medium-light and there is a bit of drying on the end, though the sticky sweetness never really leaves. Moderate to high carbonation, no true lager yeast notes, no alcohol apparency. Caramel color, corn syrup and a dollop of honey would not taste significantly different than this.

Very sweet, with a sticky finish. Simplistic profile shows just sweet caramel and faint honey. Amber colour, light body.
