Poured from 750mL bottle (saved from April 2016 PM tasting). Clear dark copper brown with no head. Aroma of glue and honey, dry and boozy, honey, a bit harsh.

Bottle from Whole Foods, Seattle; synthetic cork; annoying wax dip
Measured Final Gravity: 1008
Skewed Refractometer Reading: 10.4°B
Dark amber color. Some aroma of caramel, glue, booze. Semi-dry mouthfeel, the body is too thin, and thinner in the final, also lightly astringent; a bit of caramel and candies, and some woody astringency in the final.
Drinkable, clumsy.

Cloudy, amber, has a sticky, dark fruit aroma. Has a touch of fruit with a bit of sugar. Off-dry mead.

750mL bottle, pours a dark amber orange with a small beige head. Aroma brings out caramel and medium sweet honey. Flavour is along the same lines, with notes of caramel, medium sweet honey and dark toffee. Quite thin for the style, but it's very pleasant.

Sample during "Ellen's Blue Hair Birthday Bonanza!" on 12/12/2014. This Mead is a clear pale brown color with a minimal head and tenuous lacing on the sides of the glass. Fruit and honey in the nose. Full-bodied with flavors of sweet fruits and herbal honey. The finish is sweet with a caramel and fruit aftertaste. Decent overall.
