Tap room - Nice flowery honey notes. Light yellow. Nice sweetness, honey, but not not quite and a bit of a sharp finish. Decent.

On tap at Honey Moon, pours a crystal clear pale yellow. Nose brings out light honey and somewhat artificial orange zest. Flavour is very rough, with artificial orange zest, paint thinner and some honey. Very rough and artificial. Not a good quality mead.

Blond color. Deep aroma of polyfloral honey, with light glue, soapy flowers. Fairly sweet flavor, with light notes of honey, but covered by too much acidity, acetone; the final is a bit fruity; there is really not much orange in here (or was that the honey variety?). Not a bad base mead, but the acetone spoils it a bit.

Light straw colour. The aroma is mainly alcohol and wood. Fairly sweet flavour at the start with a tangerine accent. The middle is bone dry alcohol but the finish returns to a rich, deeply honeyish sweetness accented by tangerines.
