Like dry white wine that finished with honey. So different, so good! Not easy to have multiple, but easy to enjoy any time.

Aroma of green raisin, honey, and faint lemon zest. Taste is rather akin to a Belgian tripel with flavors that mimic those candi sugar and yeast profiles. Finish is clean with some sweetness and mild warmth. Really well done.

Picked up on grape on first sip. This beer brings back some memories for me. The first time I had it was a few years back when my brother and I stopped at the pub in Rehobeth. We had just delivered desks that we hand made for the Dogfish Inn!

My aunt can not stand hops and the flavor of an IPA. She drank this all night. The nutty finish compliments the bitter hope and orange citrus.

Clear honey color w/ steady white head & lacing. Honey-n-saffron nose & taste; add white-wine flavor over a barley base. Dry finish. One of the most interesting beers I have tasted.

July 15, 2013. That is the date I first had this beer, and the one that started me on my craft beer journey. It was all Bud Light up to this point. Here's to you DFH! Note: My palate has for sure changed since then as I first rated this a 5!

Very good. Little bit of fruitiness and honey. Description on the bottle is pretty accurate

Light honey-mead flavor, musk, grapes, light grain flavors. It’s simple, and delicious.

It has been a while since I’ve had this. Better than I remember. It is clean and smooth with subtle sweetness.
