Bottle (from Weihenweizen). Cherry, honey, and hay aroma. Golden yellow. Lightly sweet cherry, honey, and moderately bitter herbal hay flavor. Good body. Decent semi-dry mead - cherry a bit subtle.

A little more sour than the black cherry red. A little worse in general than the other one, not sure if this is an age issue. Pours brownish ochre. Thanks to Travlr.

Bottle from the source. Hazy pink color. Aroma has herbs up front, probably the tea I guess, followed by sweet fruit and a hint of white pepper. Taste is slightly sweeter, slightly less complex than the non-blush version, and still has a mostly dry finish. Tasty stuff.
