375ml bottle. Batch 2. Pours a honey gold color. The aroma is light with apple peel and some deftly applied spices that I cannot pick out positively. The taste is honey, apples, mild spices, and something tart. The palate is full an d coats the mouth well. Finishes long and semi-sweet/semi-tart. Overall: Decent mead, but the spices throw it off for me a bit, I would prefer I more pure apple.

375 ml bottle shared by Adam! Batch #1…. Aroma shows soft cinnamon, nutmeg. Flavor is super subtle apple, spice and of course honey. Almost too sweet. The spice helps with the balance quite a bit.

Pale gold, slightly syrupy. Smells slightly sweet, definitely spicy, christmassy. Plenty of nutmeg, light cinnamon. Soft mouthfeel, not super thick. Taste is rich, remarkebly dry, some toasted apple and plenty of spice. More holiday dessert than apple.

Sample. Just slightly hazy golden, smaller head, nonlasting. Quite some honey notes, slight alcohol nose and some fresh apple scent. Hints of spice in the back. Not too sweet, some honey presence and apples. A bit of alcohol presence. Light in the body. Not a fan of the style, but not bad at all.

Totally far from the michigan apple flavor. My girlfriend described it as apple brandy + simple syrup 1:1 but I'm not that harsh on the flavor despite it being holiday spiced. Warmed up the nose is oddly still boozy but flavor is sweet caramel nutmeg pie.
