Biere de Miel is bottle conditioned and contains only water, barley and wheat, honey, hops and yeast. It has a marvelously delicate scent of honey, balnaced by a dry palate, resulting in a beer that is both estery and refreshing.

[1] Review by Stoutlover72 from Northern, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/2/2008 11:42:30 AM)
"Not being the biggest "honey" beer fan around, I know that Dupont's beers are usually top-notch and was hoping the experience with this beer would be the same. This beer pours out a yellow/gold color, slight hazy with minimal rising bubbles and a 2-finger creamy head. Aroma of bready, honeyish sweet malts, with subtle floral notes. Flavors were mostly sweet malts, honey with enough bread character to notice. After about half a pint of this, I was really done drinking it. For a few sips it's not bad, but no way I could finish a pint, let alone a 750ml bottle of this stuff. It's not bad, just not my style of beer. "

"A golden apperance with a rather large head. A spicy lemon filled aroma is present. The flavor is a mixture of sweet and sour with a strong dose of honey coming through. I also taste some lemons and apricots. Some spices present in the finish. Overall this was pretty good. "

[4] Review by RedHaze from Bellevue, NE, USA who has tried this beer once. (2/3/2007 3:13:08 PM)
"Pours a hazy golden color with a fluffy one inch head that slowly settles down to a thick cap that lasts throughout, leaving loads of lace in my glass.
Smell; there's a bit of earthy, barnyard funkiness along with some citrusy fruits that I can't quite nail down. The honey comes out as it gets a little warmer.
Taste; there's a nice lemon zest that initially hits me along with a peppery spiciness, and then that barnyard/hay funkiness steps up along with some sweet honey that makes this beer really interesting. Mouthfeel is light bodied and very smooth, and finishes a bit dry."
