Lurgashall Spiced / Metheglin Mead

Bottle at home ... deep black with a thin tan head ... ohh ok its dark amber ... heavy deep toned spiced honey nose... soft full mouth feel ... lots of christmas spices ... warming honey ... decent

Bottle from Jungle Jim’s. Poured clear golden color with good legs. Heavy spicy honey aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture. Medium to heavy honey sweet flavor with a medium spicy bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Pleasing smooth alcohol burn. Nice change of spicy pace for a mead.

Alcoholic nose, with some sweet honey and spice notes. Flowery oils on the palate, some jasmine, lots of alcohol and loads of honey sweetness, that overwhelms any kind of complexity this might have had. Pancake syrup viscocity on the palate and on the rim of the glass. Just too much, it’s overpowering

Bottled. Golden coloured. Unclear. Loads of alcohol, sweetness and honey in the aroma. Has some flowery and spicy notes. Flavour as well full of spices, alcohol and honey sweetness. As allways with mead, it seems a little cloying to me. Is medium bodied. Sweet and syrupy. Has alcohol and honey in the end. Definately not the worst mead I’ve tried, but I can’t really get into this.

Bottled. (as Spiced Mead) Courtesy of Papsoe. Clear, yellow mead. Heather, honey and alcohol in the aroma. Quite floral. Honey-sweet flavor with some alcohol and quite a lot of heather. A bit papery in the mouth, medium to thin body. Overall, it is quite decent, but a bit too boring and sweet. (071006)

Blond color. Honey aroma, a bit too much medicine. Sweet flavor, with honey and too much flowers, sweet spicy touch too. Ordinary.

Bottled. A light golden beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of honey, and so is the flavor though combined with a powerful note of alcohol as well as medium notes of spices and rose hips.

Yellow colour, no head. Caramel and honey sweet aroma with a spicy note. Quite honey sweet flavor with spicy notes. Alcohol sweet finish.
