(Thanks, Jeremy! JStax) Bottle. A- Honey, mild blackberry. A- Red copper color, clear liquid, no head. T- Honey, faint cinnamon, mid sweetness. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- My Easter beer of choice. Shared with my brother which I sorta regretted, because it was outstanding. Typically not a huge mead fan but have always been interested. This was golden. Honey comes through and tasted like a batch of fresh sweet local honey. Didn't only add to the sugar and alcohol content but the flavor was pure and natural. The blackberry added a bit of fruit flavor but it was minimal. Not too sweet. Honestly shocked by the low ratings. Perhaps my favorite mead to date. Wow. Wish I had another bottle to share with Ozzy70.

Bottle from Tasty Beverage in Asheville. Stubby, yet elegant. No idea what I payed for it. Only 6%, but a mead? Sierra Nevada Sidecar glass. Too lazy to clean the Duvel. Pale, lavender foam rises & recedes. A clear, reddish brown body sits. Smells of hops & something fairly Concord grape & blackberry-like. Taste is lightly laquered, with obvious residual honey. Faintly carbonated. Juicy, mostly sweet & faintly tart raspberry & blackberry pop out. Fairly sweet, but very thin & easy to drink. Noticable, but lighter plastic note that cones with mead. Tastes like it was backsweetend with the entirety of the juice. Natural, but just way underdone. Can I drink this? Yes. It is well made? No. Manischewitz, almost.

Sample at the tasting room during The Upside Down Cake And Cherry Cyser Release! on 09/08/2018. Clear reddish-copper color with a minimal head and sheets of legs on the glass. Floral honey and fruit in the nose. Medium body with flavors of berries and honey. The finish is mildly tart berry and floral honey. Decent overall.

Draft at Pour Taproom. Clear pinkish red color pink head. Dusty berry and citrus aroma. Taste is sweet fruit soda. Seems artificial.

Sampled @ 10th Danish Ratebeer Gathering, Ulfborg, Day 1. Clear bright red amber color, virtually no head. Both flavor and aroma have honey, but also a bit artificial sweet red fruit. Very watery texture, but I like the light refreshing flavor.
