Single ceramic bottle, painted somewhat gold, from the LCBO. After just finishing their ginger mead, there is not way this could be worst. Golden colour with a bigger head. Pear and apple aromas at first, but eventually, lots of caramel come out. Thankfully, not as sour as the other one. Caramel, apples and some milder lemon citrus. Gets cloudy like the other, near the last pour. This one is definitely better than their ginger mead, but still, not the best of mead.

I always love these fancy jars and packages for beers, but of course when you splurge on such things it’s a risk that the quality of the actual beer can be compromised.... but the jar throws me back to 1500 when I was in a smoky tavern, wood and feces galore, sailors just back from the New World regailing me with stories, urging me to open it before the pressgangers stormed tha place.... Very little pressure pulling the cork off, obviously not much yeast in the mix. Soft aroma of yeast and apple. Foggy body with just a small head, but solid and reliable. The flavour, though - the flavour! A great mix of light ale and mead, cider notes, incredibly well balanced. It’s not a mead, yet it is, as it delivers mead taste with a decent beer carbonation on the back end. Modestly dry finish. This is a good experiment that turns out as a success.

Bottle @ Papsø. Pours a clear golden color with no head. has a fruity malty grainy weak honey aroma. Sweetish malty grainy flavor with weak hints of honey. has a sweetish malty weak spicy honey finish.

Ceramic bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of fiulijn. Pours a clear amber with no head. Sweet fruity nose with some surprising phenols. Medium body only, more caramel than honey really, again these odd phenols. A little fruity. Poor - has very little honey character throughout, 131112

Bottled. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of alcohol, caramel, and honey. The flavor is sweet with notes of honey, dusty flavors, caramel, and wax, leading to a dry alcoholic finish. Thanks fiulijn for sharing.
