Score
6.78
ABV: 6.4% IBU: - Ticks: 65
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.

Sampled at Great Taste, 2015.Light gold color. Do taste both the agave and the lime, and it is sweet but not overly so. Decent palate, a little thick, but abv seems low for a mead. I could see putting this over ice.
