Flat, clear light reddish orangy color. Aroma is slightly dry sour-ish fruity, citrus peel, perfume, hay, flowers, sour red berries, minerals, grass, alcohol, herbs, hints of tropical fruits. Taste is slightly sweet sour-ish fruity, red berries, citrus peel, perfume, grass, sour raspberries, flowers, hay, honey, herbs, hints of tropical fruits. Medium bitterness, slightly sweet sour-ish fruity mouthfeel. Fair enough, too much of the citrusy perfume thing...

Bottle. Courtesy of clubgonzo. It pours a still dark blue-ish red body. Quite oily. The aroma has copious amounts of blueberry, with the cardamom blending in fantastically. Vanilla in the background, adding to the already present sweetness. Hints of honey in the back. There's some alcohol too, but who would've thought it was at 14%. It's full-bodied, very lightly warming and smooth on the palate, with an oily feeling. Blueberry and cardamom in a heavenly match in the flavor, with honey, vanilla, freshly baked raisin buns and some alcohol too. Some alcohol burn in the finish, which by the way lasts forever. A wonderful mead indeed. Really, really delicious. 190719

On tap at Sørlandets Ølfestival. A mostly clear golden colored mead with a small offwhite head. Pleasant aroma of apples and orchard, with honey as a backdrop. It's full bodied, soft and nicely carbonated, with a pleasant sweetness and a light sour touch. Apple, honey, grass notes and some flowery hints. Long finish. Nice and dangerously easy drinkable. 190713

Bottle, shared by clubgonzo. A clear, dark golden colored mead with some white bubbles. Honey-sweet aroma with a touch of forest, some lemon, juniper twigs more than berries, even though there's only berries in it, there's lots of things going on here, but it's hard to separate the different aroma elements. It's full-bodied, very lightly warming and with a super-light carbonation. Honey, fruityness, forest notes, some citrus hints and juniper in the flavor. The juniper berries are more evident in the finish. A quite traditional style mead, yet with a retro-modern twist that works well. Sort of like a dessert wine this one. Nice indeed, and perhaps a bit gentle. 190712

On tap at Sørlandet Ølfestival. A clear golden colored mead with a small white head. Honey driven aroma with apple, some spiced hints and a generic flowery, fruity touch. Full to medium body, quite sweet on the palate with a faint alcohol warmth. Honey, apple, some heather and spiced notes and a generic fruitiness. Long fruity finish. A nice mix of traditional and modern mead. 190712
