Picked this up at Colonial Spirits. Crystal clear deep golden color with a smattering of bubbles when poured. The aroma has an waxy note I’ve never experienced before. Light berry note with a hint of menthol, floral honey and alcohol. The flavor reminds me a bit of pomme fruit tartness, with a bit of light berry and faint honey flavor. Alcohol is present but not harsh. This is like nothing I’ve ever had before. I would have liked a bit more honey sweetness and maybe a little less of the tart.

Very light yellow. A bit sticky in the legs. A little tart, acidity and sour apples with berries on the nose. Taste is similar to the nose with a granny smith apple tartness, some berries, raspberry, fresh cut grass, it’s thin and not too oily. also the sweetness is low as well. Really nice berry forward finish and the tartness is awesome.

Sample at Willrunforbeer grand mead tasting. Aroma is flowers, honey and almost a lemon.
Very subtle berry underneath the sweet honey, floral and lemon notes. Lighter and refreshing for a mead.

Poured from bottle light golden color with a faint aroma of honey. Taste is lightly floral with a thin mouth feel. A nice easy drinking mead.
