A sweet mead made with whole cinnamon sticks, vanilla beans and aged on American oak. We slice each vanilla bean open by hand before adding to the mead to ensure maximum flavor extraction. Serve slightly chilled.

Bottle shared by Leighton, much thanks. Pale clear liquid. Aroma smells just like my mom’s rice pudding. Vanilla, rice, cinnamon, and a slight heat. Not heat from alcohol but spice. Lightly doughy texture. Seriously, it reminds me of rice pudding. Just awesome!

Bottle shared in MV. Pours clear, pale, very faint yellow. Fun aroma, some dry cinnamon, pale bread. Medium to heavy sweet flavour, with a little alcohol burn, some further drying cinnamon, a little oily vanilla. Medium to full bodied, lightly chewy. Warming finish, some more cinnamon and biscuits. Fun stuff overall.

Clear, bright, light yellow....no head. Smoky, raw vanilla and alcohol aroma. Sticky sweet vanilla bean syrup, and yes....as other have said, it does have a Salami note to it..spiced meat, smoke. Cinnamon tingle.... Wow...exceptionally smooth for 14%.... Awesome. (in small doses) The only way to ingest more vanilla is by drinking a Yankee Candle.

Bottle courtesy of tkrjukoff. Pours clear pale golden with no head worth mentioning. Smell is sweet and surprisingly enough slightly smoky with honey, vanilla, cinnamon, salami, alcohol, sweet rye bread, dried flovers and hints of aspartame. Taste is sweet with crackers, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, alcohol, charred wood and floral perfume. Mouthfeel is sticky sweet, clogging, boozy and medium bodied. Finish is sweet and very tiny bitter with honey, vanilla, cinnamon, charred wood, butterscotch hard candy and sweet bread. very much over the top. Almost crippling sweet with a strange combination of salami and very sweet vanilla candies. --- Beer merged from original tick of B. Nektar Vanilla Cinnamon Mead on 02 Mar 2018 at 11:20 - Score: 5
