This craft beverage is seductive and full of surprises. Safeword pushes the limits of liquid gratification as Honey and Belgian Dark Candi Syrup are tied together and then disciplined in an Oak barrel until they are released for your pleasure. Enjoy the adventure waiting for you within this bottle and remember, don't forget the Safeword...

Pours dark, clear, brown. Scent is very complex, cardamom like, complex, dark sugar is recognizable, but not what I expected, much more complex and intense than what i'm used to in candy sugar. Taste is full, sweet - obviously - dark sugar, purified fruit, hionts of chocolate. Medium intense honey profile. very decent, but not on par with some other offerings by superstition .

Bottle pour from share with AirForceHops--thanks Chris! Appearance is clear mahogany with no discernible sparkle, no head and no lacing. Aroma is strong honey. Taste is strong honey. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, a smooth enjoyable beverage but not beer.

Tap at the Mikkeller events. Rich, honey, fruit, booze. Can feel the booze a little in the taste. Blackberry, but sweet. Thick. Boozy. Nice. Maybe touch of coconut. Very interesting taste if you chew it a bit. Cherry. Marzipan.

Aroma of dark fruit, cherry skins, oak. Flavor is rich with rock candy, cherry, raisin, and is rounded out by ok. Oily vicious mouthfeel. Very nice!
