Pirtle Blackberry Mead

Brewed by Pirtle Winery
Style: Mead
Weston, Missouri USA

Medium purple colored body that didn’t have much legs in the glass. The aroma was rich with blackberries and honey. There is a nice light floral quality throughout. The taste had some sweet blackberry jam and a little bit of honey. The blackberries absolutely dominate any mead character. If someone had told me this was straight blackberry wine, I would have believed it. A nice sticky body with a medium mouth feel. Decent.

Purple winey look. Like a blackberry merlot. Smells of Floral blackberry wine with alittle alcohol. Tastes like a lighter blackberry wine with an alcohol spice and some vague floral notes. Feels like wine. It’s good enough for me!

Sample at Vineyard. This was all blackberry, tasted more or less like liquefied Blackberry pie.
