Panda at home, thanks to Graham Grumbo, 04/02/24. Light bubblegum pink with a faded crimson cap that dissipates to bubbles. Nose is honey, floral, light pink berry esters, sugars. Taste comprises honey, perfume, sugars, pink berry sherbets, straw, hedgerow. Medium bodied, light and subtle prickly carbonation, semi drying close with a lick of alcohol. Sips easy for the 12% ... pleasant enough Mead without becoming too 1D.
