Very happy with this. A real winner. White Labs WLP029 gave this a very clean lager like taste. Orange character was pleasantly noticable without being over powering. Brew netted out at nearly 6% ABV (OG 1.056, TG 1.011) but honey ligtened the body and made a very drinkable brew. Would highly recommend.
