Essential Elements - Orange blossom honey, agave nectar, lime juice and lime zest.
Appearance - Pale green and crystal clear with a fizzy head that disperses swiftly to the rim.
Experience - Tart lime engulfs the tongue followed by a creamy sweetness of honey and agave. Medium bodied with a lime pith bitterness on the semi-dry finish. A zip of acidity adds to the wonderful balance of the sweet, tart, and bitter flavors.

Draught, taster, TTO at Taphouse. Pale silver coloured body. Poor lacing, naked at the top. Sweet aroma with hints of honeyed apples. Honeyed sweet flavour character as well joined by moments of dry nectar and berries. Clean and sweet on the swallow. Okay, not a favourite. (Copenhagen 13.05.2018).

Tap at Craft Room. Pale shiny clearish yellow-green. Dry sourish aroma, vaguely citric, reminiscent of dry tart white wine, gemiΕ‘t almost, but not unpleasant, the tastr combines agave nectar sweetish touches with tartness that does come from the lime, but lacks the lime aromatics I love, almost lemony, again-well integrated. Would like this more better carbonated, or carbonated at all. Quite solid stuff nonetheless, for a typical American light mead.

On tap at Craft Room, Opatovina, Zagreb. Shared with π. Clear, oily, straw colour. Almost no head. Honey, light glue, a bit fake-ish, plastic fruity aroma. Agava and lime present. Sour and light juicy balanced with sweet and sugary. Lime juice and honey aroma. Medium body, soft to moderate carbonation, moderate finish, oily texture. Actually nice.

Draft at Craft Brewed. Pours a clear silver color with almost no head. Grassy, clove honey aromas with some apple blossom and light lime. More lime and sprite-like character on the palate, but without the carbonation. Smooth and very drinkable, but character is kind of muted overall. Would like to try again in the bottle.

Bottle from Boxbeers. Pours very pale gold with minimal and short lasting white head. Aroma of lime, honey and something sweet and syrupy which I take to be agave nectar. Medium to heavy sweetness, moderate tartness. Moderate body, oily texture, fine carbonation. Finish starts sweet, with kick of lime coming through creating a nice sweet and tart combo. Grew on me this one.

Tap at beertemple. Clear pale straw with no head. Sweet honey and agave, Caribbean cactus fruits, a touch of vanilla, a bit like a sweet cider or perry but the dry and thin supple honey adds amazing notes to the experience. Very fruity and honey sweet with some vanilla-esque dryness aswell. Medium body and no carbonation. Very lean and supple. Nice tropical bee juice. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Agave Lime on 27 Dec 2017 at 19:54 - Score: 8. Original review text: As " B. Nektar Tuco Style Freakout (aka Agave Lime) " 3.9
