Not doin much for me. Good and crisp. Tastes more of a mead than wine. Sweet, but dry finish. Shoulda died with the egyptians

Delicious. Wonder if this is the same stuff the Sumerians served the Annunaki? 🤣👽

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.

A cross between mead and wine. Uncharted waters for me.

Fantastic! And even better knowing the story in Smithsonian magazine from July August 2011 . I'm guessing it was King Midas favorite given it was in large quantity in his tomb

Revisiting this one. I didn’t remember being a fan. But it’s pretty good. It feels like they didn’t quite commit to a style though.

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

Lots of white grape flavor with a little bit of honey. This is pretty good. It’s a bit sweet, but not it’s not too much.
