Beer Report: Honey Nut Brown Ale Tasting

I tasted the "Honey Nut Brown Ale" last night - and well... I think I may have accidentally made "Malt Liquor" and not beer. What I'm trying to say is that I've very much exceeded the 4% of alcohol content that legally defines the word "Beer" here in the US. Oh well. I already have a few people chomping at the bit for me to bring a couple of liters to their parties - this could get VERY amusing. I think I need to bring along that little water cooler of mine when I do this.

About the Ale:
Dark in the glass, GREAT fizz and head (I was so surprised and exclaimed "OMG!!!! That looks like REAL BEER!!!!"), dark nutty base flavor with a serious honey presence, crisp honey tang in the top notes as well. Serious buzz sets in QUICKLY. Only serve well chilled - otherwise the honey bite can get out of hand. The wildflower honey is from a local apiary, Horace Bell in DeLand. Watch out Boddington's!

I'll be doing a specific gravity reading soon and will post the actual alcohol content - right now we're theorizing it is as high as 7-9%, or similar to a Lenten Beer such as Spaten Optimator.

A friend I graduated with from Stetson has expressed some interest in the whole homebrew thing, I'm thinking we may have to start a little "Young Lady's Beginning Homebrew Club" or something... because between Jenn (who did a REALLY good job with a light bodied beer that had orange peel hints) and I, our friends are starting to take notice. Watch out boys...
