750 ml. Deep amber body. Big, frothy cream head, mostly lasting. Aroma of honey, poplar veneer, chestnut, caramel, clover. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly sweet and lightly bitter. Medium body, watery/creamy texture, lively carbonation. For as sweet as this starts out (with tastes of strawberry, alcohol, chestnut, honey), the sweetness falls off in the finish. Raw honey dominates the taste and combined with some hop bitterness, it produces a raw floral, earthy, wood veneer taste that came across as an off-flavor. Interesting and different, but not necessarily satisfying.
