| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 26, 2008 Bottle from West Lakeview. Pours a light red, noticeable viscosity from the bottle. Nose is distinctly honey and sauv blanc-esque. Also a nice acidity on the nose. Taste is more rich with a clean honey bittersweetness and tart pom flavors. Very clean and nice. Tasty stuff. xnoxhatex (1305), Grand Rapids/Chicago, Michigan, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 15, 2007 Sample from West Lakeview Liquors. Clear, dark ruby red. Alc and pomegranate are the strongest aromas with slight grape/winey, sweet and big honey. Flavour is a great sour pomegranate with slight alc, honey, pretty acidic and bitter. Medium bodied with sharpness. Mostly honey and very good tartness. Cornfield (4943), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 15, 2007 Nice looking pour, a clear purple-gold, slightly thicker than water. The aroma is sweet but balanced by the pomegranate tartness. The balance carries nicely into the flavor. A fruity & tasty mead, refreshing with a dry finish. Nice.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 11, 2007 Updated: Jan 16, 2007Great sparkiling purple/ruby pour with typical oily legs. The nose is honey, alcohol, and berries. The flavour is initially very sweet honey with a mixed berry tartness...and alcohol. The pomegranite is sweet/tart and quite refreshing, mimicing fresh berries...mainly of the black variety. This is another fine product by my favorite meadery.
