Bottle, 13.5%. Sweetish aroma, has a little bit of smelly feet. Cloudy pink colour, good laces. The flavour is nicely sweet, has a good honey note. Perhaps it has been a while since it was opened. Probably better fresh.

Bottle. Aslightly hazy one, dark golden in color, and with no head or carbonation. Oily. Flowers and honey on the nose, a bit more alcoholic than I would like. The flavor is quite sweet, with a sourness as well. Honey, flowers and alcohol, quite warm and definitely full-bodied, lasting finish with honey and sweetness. A decent one, but nothing special. 100813

Bottled@yespr. Golden colour, no head. Aroma is spices, alcohol and honey. Also some slight barnyard. Flavour is quite earthy, honeyish and spicy. Not that inspiring mead.

Bottled. A hazy dark golden mead. The aroma has weird notes of spices among them nutmeg combined with honey. The flavor is sweet with notes of honey, flowers, and some spices, leading to a dry alcoholic finish, where the alcohol burns in the throat. Thanks fiulijn for sharing.
