Bottle. Color is clear golden. Aroma and taste are rich and warming with a nice balance between alcohol and honny.

Corked bottle
Hazy light amber color, with a persistent perlage that supports a generous head. The aroma shows a soapy mead character, later some herbs too, and honey. The flavor is sweet, but the bitterness of the beer clashes with the mead; and in the flavor too the herbal touch is disturbing. Controversial.

Bottle at EBF 08. Honey, bit musty on aroma. That is just hugely intense. Honey and nougaty nut. It’s good, sweet as hell, but with a good alcohol burn. Smooth, smooth raisin fruit. 3.2/5.0 Re-rate Bottle at the Spotify tasting. Honey nuts and nougat. Bit of alcohol, bit of peach/dried fruits. I rather like it, quite refined, quite sweet, but not over the top, bit of nice smokeyness.

Bottled@RBESG Grand Tasting 2008
Slightly hazy orange color, small off-white head. Spicey ginger aroma, maybe slightly honeyish. A bit fizzy, honeyish mead-like flavor. Some earthyness. Alcohol in the finish. "Easier" to drink than a normal mjod.

Bottled. Golden colour, small white head. Malts meets quite much honeyish and nectary sweetness in both the aroma and flavour. Also some slightly fruity hints. A bit like a mix of mead and beer.

RBESG08 grand tasting Mead!? Ok, that might explain some things... Haty gold colour, thick white head. Fruity honeyish malty nose. Extremely sweet taste, fruity, honey, artificial lemon juice. Odd, just odd.
