On tap at the brewpub. It’s a clear, dark golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma reminds me of honey corn, with a little twist of caramel. Thin to medium body, dry on the palate, with honey corn all the way. Some bitterness though. Honey in the beers might be a good idea, in this one it’s just weird. 130808
