First bottle sampled on 11/15/07: amazing taste for so young a beer! Thick, rich porter with full brown head....honey sweetness really comes through
Second bottle sampled on 11/17/07 at UM-OSU game: Same great, rich porter taste! Everyone commented on lack of burned bitterness, wonderful sweet gloss from the honey

This recipe came directly from the Beer Tools recipe web site. It is a very smooth beer, with a distinct porter color and body, with the honey adding a touch of sweetness and "weight". Not a session beer, sadly, but a nice cold weather brew.
