This is a very hot blend of the standard Sött men inte Rött mead. Base mead shines while in mouth while the heat waits until you swallow.

Sample. Pours clear pale golden. Aroma is very similar to the non-habanero, a bit dusty, lots of pollen. Body is heavy and super spicy, I feel almost nothing else. Too hot for me. Kinda works, but this simply becomes one-dimensional for me.

Golden with no head. Aroma is bourbon, vanilla, oak, peppers. Taste is sweet honey with intense hot finish. A bit too much for enjoyability. But I like hot so this is really nice.

Bottle. Hazy golden color with no head. Aroma is flowery honey, chili flesh, caramel. Taste is flowery honey, caramel, a bit milky, immediate chili catch. Oily mouthfeel, flat, great chili catch in the back. Super nice chili flavour, and I love that, but it loses a bit of complexity against the regular version.

Bouteille 25cl via trade, thanks a lot Timo. Dorée, huileux, filament au verre. Arôme aux effluves mielleuses, fleuri léger avec une petite pointe de chaleur épicée arrivant en rétro. A ce point, le tout n’est pas agressif. Bourbon touche en rétro sans pour cela être trop dominant. Palais est complet avec de belles notes douces de miel renforcé par une touche de chaleur venant des habaneros. Fleuri, Bourbon bien là et apportant une certaine douceur avec une petite pointe de vanille qui balance l’effet épicé. J’apprécie bien le mélange entre cette chaleur épicée, extrême pour certains, et la douceur du miel.

Bottle shared by tderoeck, cheers! No head (and not expected either of course), pale straw- to champagne-like colour. Aroma of crisp, freshly cut, smokey Habanero peppers, honey, dry white pepper, grape peel, pear syrup, chalk, white raspberries. Very sweet and sticky honey taste, more sugary than sugar, sweet white fruit accents, oily mouthfeel, quickly shifting to a very strong, spicy chili heat, eventually dominating completely and tasting a bit like the hot and spicy oil used on pizzas and the like. I love capsaicin so this is a lovely thing for me, but I can imagine people who are not as used to chili heat could be unable to drink this...

Bottle courtesy of tkrjukoff. Pours tiny hazy pale reddish golden leaving some subtle legs on the glass with a swirl. Smell is floral, slightly fruity and tiny vegetal with floral honey, pale caramel, cocoa butter, raspberries, hay, minerals, fruity orange chili fruits, nose-tingling capsicum, lemon peal and hints of alcohol. Taste is sweet, slightly floral, tiny fruity and heavy spicy hot. Mouthfeel is soft, round, olily, very tiny tart, heavy spicy hot, tiny boozy and medium bodied. Finish is sweet with honey, heavy habanero, minerals, lemon peal and hints of raspberries. On it’s own this is just plain too heavy on the habanero but I can see this being awesome served with other things. Intriguing! --- Beer merged from original tick of Sött Men Inte Rött (Habanero) on 20 Aug 2016 at 15:26 - Score: 7. Original review text: Honey, light raspberries, light cocoa butter and HEAVY habanero. Too hot, sure, but also very intriguing and asks to be paired with foods.
