Bottled sample at the winery, 1/3/19. Clear with just a slight yellow tinge. Aroma of citrus, honey, and a mineral note. Taste is honey, lemon, berry. Medium bodied, dry.

Bottle via a trade from the man, the myth, the legend, tytoanderso...as an extra along with 3 other White Winter EXTRAS! (BEER KARMA to him!). Pours nearly as clear as water, with some legs. Aroma is straight forward with honey, some freshly cut grass, sage brush, light citrus, and desert flora and dryness. Nice spiciness to the honey. Taste is very dry but near watery with alcohol, mint water and dry wine. Odd trade duality of alcohol flavor and thin body. Strange, and I am not sure quite how they accomplished that (along with the water like hue). A few too many wine tannins (added after, not from oak). Very dry in residual sugars and finish. Would be interested in talking to the brewer about their process in making this.

Light sweet aroma. Clear like water. There is the lightest touch of sweet honey at the beginning, by after a second on the tongue the mead is very dry; it is hard to drink very much at all. I missed the lemon/lime. Not bad; but not how I like my mead.
