Name: Beasley's Honey White
Brewer: Fullsteam Brewery (Durham, NC)
Classification: Witbier
Alcohol: 5%
Thoughts: I said on Friday that a few of us went to Fullsteam after hitting up Bull City Burger & Brewery. Well it was an amazing day outside so we got a few beers and sat down to play Spades. It was a lovely way to spend a Friday evening. I picked out the Beasley's Honey White because it was the only one on tap I had not had. Beasley’s Honey White is an unfiltered white ale brewed with Bee Blessed Pure Honey, North Carolina oats, and Tellicherry black pepper for Beasley's Chicken + Honey in Raleigh. As you can see in the picture it pours a cloudy orange that nearly matches the table underneath it. The head is bright white and slightly wispy. The nose has an overpowering pepper scent to it as well as some undertones of sweet honey and malts. It is a very savory smell that I can see going extremely well with Chicken and Waffles. The taste is again big on the pepper and sweetness. There is a mound of flavor in every sip. It is easy to drink despite the burning spice in the back of your throat. I liked this beer a lot, but it has its issues. That doesn't stop me from wanting more!
Rating: 84/100
