Bottle courtesy of Jeroen. Many thanks! Poured a clear burgundy colour with little life. The aroma is vinous, oaky, red berry fruits. The flavour is strong sweet, with a rich, juicy blueberry, spicy cinnamon, juicy blueberry, marshmallow vanilla, warm alcohol bitter palate. Full bodied with soft carbonation. Awesome!

Bottle @ Eiber fest. Pours a deep ruby brown body. Aroma's: dried fruity, sweet, retronasal the pepper is noticeable. Flavour is sweet, fruity, light sour. Slightly dry mouthfeel, like red wine. Finishes dry. I'm not an experienced mead drinker (at all), but this is very nice.

Tap @ Eiber fest. Pours a pale yellow, light hazy body with no head. Aroma's: bergamot noticeable, a bit ginger ale-ish. Retronasal it's strangely herbal, bergamot, light sweet and light sour. Flavour is light sweet & sour and the bergamot really adds something. Light bodied with fairly low carbonation (it was carbonated though). Flavour lingers.
