| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Nov 19, 2009 Bottle ( 330ml - swing-top ). Shared with blankboy and garthicus, via trade with glouglouburp. Hazy gold with minimal frothy head. Smells like a mild, herbal mead, or a light sake - "green" and sweet, fairly boozy. Taste - honey, celery and vodka - again, like a cheap sake. Slick, astringent, boozy, fairly flat mouthfeel - leaves a sticky, herbal boozy aftertaste - pretty challenging and a bit harsh. madmitch76 (645), , Essex, England
