Bottle pour at Right Proper. One of my early experiences with this amazing cidery/meadery/cysery. Hazy royal purple, large bubbles at the edges. Aroma of sour plums, prunes, raisins. Taste is really funky, titally unexpected for a mead, but dies have a sweet background. Very fruity, more complex than your average mead. It works!

Bottle bought by the girlfriend. Poured a light yellow color with a wispy head with Nice carbonation. Aroma was nice light tart notes, very floral - some peppercorn note. Flavor was nice tartness, funky floral character. Nice tart notes - a touch dry, but a lot lighter than a traditional mead.
