Pale yellow glass coating liquid. Not much as far as legs. Light alcohol, yeast, plaster and mild floral aromas. Sweet indeed. I’m not catching the less favorable qualities found in the aroma. Flavors of raisins and clean clover honey. Actually quite light on the palate. Quite simple and sweet and just a hint of floral essence to lift it a bit.

Jun 28, 2008 Bottle from stine - thanks! Lighter color with a lighter aroma of orange blossom and maybe some wildflower. Flavor is a nice, sweet treat with some cinnamon, orange blossom, oranges, and assorted wildflowers. Smooth feel. Not fantastic, but a decent mead. For a "sweet" mead it should be a bit more aggressive in my opinion.

Jan 19, 2008 "Sweet Mead," indeed. This one may be a bit too much for me. It pours a very pale yellow body, thinner than most other meads that I’ve had. It has a sugary sweet honey aroma supported by a light floral scent, complete with flower bed. Smooth and easy to drink. The flavor also has a touch of apples & pears with a bit of alcohol. Quite a sticky sweet finish. Not bad, but not a mead that I’d repeat. Super Liquor, Peoria, IL

Dec 4, 2007 750ml bottle. Pours a pale yellow with little carbonation or legs. Aroma is sweet and honey-like with a distinctly earthy undertone. Taste is syrupy and full with a gentle honey and fruit flavor that ramps up to a pleasant strong finish. A wonderful introduction to the world of mead.
