Depends on numerous variables, not the least of which is the brewers patience and experience. That being said, I'm sure that someone else has had a honey wheat that strong and that the abv has overtaken the taste. Brew on my friend
I still have a few bottles of mine left. It was a fellow brewers favorite beer I have made to date but not a personal favorite. I even used the same strain yeast.
This was my thread about it: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/wheat-whisky-winter-warmer-281505/
I used a bit different ingredients but the concept is the same. I still have bottles left...

I think it will taste delicious..... 
What he said ^^^ except I'm not sure about it being fruity. The honey will almost certainly fully attenuate. You will really get very little flavor from it. I find with a beer this high in abv, it will really benefit from aging for a while. Let us know though!
Thanks everyone for the advice. How long would you guys say would be an appropriate time to age before drinking. I know longer the better but im being realistic my dry mouth will not let it go forever.
with a brew that strong, I would age it for a few months in the bottle before drinking. but that's just me.

I have a honey brown that came out to 9.2%, has been in the bottle for almost 7 weeks and is just starting to mellow out. Still has a boozy flavor but is somewhat drinkable.
