There is a surprising amount of tartness to balance the sweetness. Refreshing and no alcohol tastes. One of the better meads that I have had.

This tastes entirely of Honey! Some meads you can’t really taste it, but this one is my favorite!

750mL bottle. Pale yellow gold color, thin film of white head. Tart, estery aroma. Heavy apricot flavor, with pear and apple. Reserved sweetness. Sharp finish with prominent yeast character. Mouthfeel is a light medium, somewhat dry.

Effervescent pale yellow with a sweet fruity aroma. Taste is of fruits, honey, very light on the tongue.

On tap at The Shepherd and Knucklehead. Pours a light golden in color with zero head. It is very light and fruity - the apricot adds a nice fruit character to the honey flavor. The mouthfeel of this is almost still. I could drink this mead all day.

Pours a light gold color with bubbly, lively carbonation. Dry, fruity, mild ctrus flavor to compliment the honey. Alcohol is very well-hidden and this stuff is very smooth, light, and drinkable.

Tap @ Green Dragon... Poured a light golden with no head. Aroma was sour and yeasty and a lot like champagne. Very sweet and like an exaggerated sour ale with honey and low carbonation.
