We thought we had them under control. The antidote was working. But life, or even death, finds a way. After a year of successful treatments, their bodies stopped responding and grew to nearly twice their normal size. now they've overrun the city. I fear it's too late for mankind. They're coming. B. Afraid.

Bottle thanks to my mom! Pours a clear pale amber red with a white head that starts and remains at the edges. Aroma has a really nice combination of rye, cherries and honey with a good balance on the sweetness. Flavor starts with sweet cherries and honey with a great rye backing that really rounds out the mead.

Bottle. Pours with a clear peach to rosé hued body with a white ring of foam. More legs than lace. Spicy aromas with pronounced pie cherry, floral honey, fusel alcohol and a lot of barrel. Some odd, anise like spiciness that vaguely reminds me of angostura bitters. Lots of tannin and a good bit of heat. Flavors are medium dry, boozy and tannic. Cherry skins and barrel. Pie cherry sweetness and floral honey. Lowish but more than petulant carb. Lingering spicy character. Tannins dry things out. Slightly off dry, but not sweet, warming, thinner body is blustered by carbonation. All in all it’s taste as long as I don’t try to overthink it. Good but busy.
