Boysenberry Mead
Semi-Sweet with rich berry notes in the aroma.
The honey showcases the boysenberries and bring though a full-bodied, juicy flavor with rich berry notes in the aroma

A bit of vinegar-y tartness on the front end similar to some framboise lambics, sweetens up as it goes. Nice flavor.

Bottle sample at Moonlight Meadery, pours a clear dark burgundy with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of semi-sweet berries, with subtle wildflower honey. Flavour is quite complex, with lightly tart and semi-sweet berries, with wildflower honey. Balanced and nicely done.

Fantastic! Lightly tart/tangy black/raspberry/cherry/currant/plum/skin/orange/floral/honey/brown sugar; lt vanilla/cocoa/nutty/herbal. Sweet/full body finish. Min drying, no cloying. Dangerously smooth, min warmth. Very rich honey, great berry intensity!

Bottle from the source. Deep garnet color with brilliant clarity. Perfumy floral and tart on the nose with bits of non descript fruit. Flavor is pretty tart and fruity with bits of sweet honey and some light non descript berry type fruit. Bits of alcohol warming make this quite a sipper.

375 ml bottle. Dark red/ purple color. Aroma is berries, honey and mild plastic. Flavor is a carbon copy of the aroma. Nice Berry hint but mostly honey. Body is on the flimsy side for any mead. Certainly drinkable without question.

Thanks Adrien for buying this one and sharing. Nice purple and great clarity in the glass with a reddish blood red in the light. Nose is clearly dominated by the honey, sharp apple and a fruity blue-berry like nose. Nice and really jammy. Love the fruit forward notes, minimal bitterness. just a tough of latex but otherwise, really drinkable. would love more mouthfeel this is pretty thin.
