Can from Thirst Merchant in Fort Greene. Mojito glass. Clear & very pale straw body. Head hangs around for a bit longer then I would have expected, but not on a beer level. Smell is waxy, soft potpourri floral, faint acetone & an uncertain melon freshness. Taste is wax, honey florals, watered down Sprite tartness & sweetness, some slickness in the body, mellow carbonation. Taste like a very basic, fresh, low-abv show mead. The waxiness I get with meads never appealed to me, but it's very gentle here. Carbonation wants to be better. Okay.
