Bottle thanks to Adam. Pours a dark purple with small pink head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is strong currant, berry, honey, oak. Slick body, jammy, nice sweetness, currant, blackberry, light dry finish, enjoyed this.

Bottle at CBC Islington, thanks to Nathan. It pours deep purple - black. The aroma is sweet, oily, crazy jammy, loads of dark berry, blackcurrant, Victoria sponge and fruit juice. The taste is sweet, oily, chewy, very jammy all the way through, sugary, loads of stewed dark berry, ribena, honey cake and hint of wood with a slick, tangy finish. Medium bodied and slick mouth -feel. Very fruity indeed. Good fun in small pours.

Bottle shared in London / big thanks to Nathan. Pours deep reddish brown with a few bubbles. Great aroma, lots of juicy berries, nips of toasted honey, blackberries. Big sweet flavour, some bitter berry peel, seeds, more gooey honey. Full bodied, poly and chewy. Warming finish, more rich and lightly tangy berries. Wonderful stuff.

Bottle courtesy of Linus. Deep purple, almost black, pour. Pleasant mixed red berry nose with very light honey. Currant & raspberries come through a lot. Light leather & minerals. Tiny sweet, sour & fruity taste. Round, tart & tiny dry mouthfeel. Solid semi-sweet mead with plenty of berry tartness & some additional oak complexity.
