Bottle. Wow, this one was eager to leave the bottle. Luckily I was warned when purchasing it and cracked it open over the kitchen sink. Got well above half of it in my glass, where it formed a gigantic, rapidly collapsing white head over a foggy orange colored body. The aroma is lovely, close to too much on the passionfruit side, as the floral honey is pushed to the far back. Still, that sort of nose-cloying scent of honey is in front, in a strange way. It's very effervescent, with a medium body fullness, and it's quite dry on the palate. Passionfruit dominates the flavor in the same way as in the aroma, but in the flavor there's even less honey detected. On the other hand, I sense elderflower, which I didn't find on the nose. Towards the finish it starts feeling sweet, but in a good way, and it isn't making the mouth sticky, far from, as it's more acidic, sort of like lemon juice acidic, but in a good, passionfruity way. A wonderful one indeed, hope they give it another try next year, and manage to control the fermentation. I'll drink more of it if they manage to. 180228

What an astonishing experience. I never thought mead could be as refreshing and nice as this.
Lovely hazed yellow color. Lots of passion fruit in the aroma. Nice mellow honey touch when the temperature got right. A little bit of a gusher at first. A little bit high carbonation level. But that worked really nice with this one. Made it refreshing and sparkling. Nice balanced sweetness together with a fine mild acidity made it very pleasant to drink. Lovely balanced honey and passion fruit flavor. Mild refreshing citric also. My goodness Mjøderiet rocks!

Bottle from Gulating Brennåsen. Hazy yellow golden body with very lively carbonation and a big white head that fades quite fast. I was warned that this may be a gusher so I opened this carefully over the sink from a cold bottle, lost only a few drops. Very fruity and refreshing aroma, citric fruit, passion fruit and oranges with the honey gently in the background. The flavor is like expected from the aroma, dominated by the fruit. Of course passion fruit, but it felt a lot like oranges as well. This might have something to do with the nice fruity acidity that made a fine contrast to the sweetness and managed this to be more refreshing that sticky even if it’s a rather sweet one. The honey is just enough present for this drink I think, more would probably give a sweeter and less refreshing impression and sweet mead needs some more alcohol in my opinion. Fine, balancing light body and a pleasant aftertaste in the same direction. Very nice indeed and I’m glad I was warned about the gushing in advance.

Nice fizzy-creamy mediumlasting head, slightly hazy. Aroma is fresh and slightly sweet fruity, masses of passionfruit juice, citrus, grass, passionfruit stones, tropical juice, hints of honey. Taste is fresh and slightly sweet fruity, passionfruit juice, grass, hay, passionfruit stones, citrus, tropical juice, hints of honey and some toast and knekk far back. Fresh citrusy mouthfeel, nice carbonation. Lovely stuff, and dangerously easy drinking...
