Tap @ Både &, Kristiansand. Nice, clear golden body with a small pinkish head. Very strong rhubarb aroma with lots of strawberries as well. Flavor is less sweet than a few other mead from Mjøderiet I have sampled. The fruity flavor from rhubarb and strawberries dominates and the sweet honey is almost like playing around in the background. It’s both slightly fruity acidic and honey sweet with the alcohol dangerous well hidden. Feels quite refreshing and tasty for a glass, but I don’t think I could handle another. Nice body and quite high carbonation – actually think the carbonation plays an important role for the freshness here. Another original and fun to taste mead from Mjøderiet.

On tap at Både&. An almost clear, golden colored mead with a little carbonation, but not any head. Strawberry dominates the aroma, with a touch of lemon or rhubard in the back. The flavor is much the same, the strawberrries are too much evident, but at least I like the dryness and tartness. The honey is quite subdued, there's just a touch of it. Long, dry and strawberryish finish. Not my favorite Mjøderiet mead, there's too much strawberry, but it's quite decent anyway. 180127

Glowing pale yellow color. Looks nice. Solid aroma. Some strange and a bit sour notes. Full body and a balanced nice sweetness. Lots of apricot in this one. Also some honey and marzipan. Dangerously well masked alcohol. Feels fresh and easy to drink.

Tap @ Både &, Kristiansand. Slightly unclear red body with a rather big, foamy and lacing white to slightly pink head. Quite much carbonation. Strong aroma of sweet raspberry juice and candy. Flavor is very sweet raspberry juice with raspberry candy and a little hint of acid in the background that practically drown in sweetness. Despite the sweetness and lack of honey flavor its actually quite nice and somehow have some kind of freshness instead of the sticky feeling you might expect from the first impression. I’m not a big fan of too much honey flavor, but in case I probably wish for some more honey and a little bit less candy. But it’s tasty and kinda interesting anyway.
