Mead aged in bourbon barrels.
A long time ago, in a basement not far from Detroit...
It is a dark time for the rebel army. The evil empire has tightened its grip and has silenced the rebels’ voice. In an effort to strengthen their cause, the rebels sent out thousands of bottles across the galaxy. But the Imperial troops are hot on their trail. The revolution begins today. Help us B. Nektar fans..... You're our only hope.
May the Pours B. With You.

clear yellow, no head. Aroma of honey, wood and booze, well blended, although almost like it is a bit oxidated ( likely the wood, the bottle is fresh opened ). Flavor is fantastic. deep honey, with some herbal and woody notes on top of that, also faint flowery note, and faint frutiy notes. but mostly potent honey. very good mead.
