| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 2, 2007 Massive legs mount the unclear amber pour. Aromatic and alcoholic offering, of course honeyed, but never syrupy. Still, huge concentration in mouth with expanding flavours despite the apparently large water proportions. Strong and long finish with lots of floral nuances. Sticky, sweet yet good stuff. rickgordon (3358), Göteborg, Sweden

Dark golden colour. Vineous aroma with honey sweetness and cherries. Super smooth mouthfeel with warming alcohol and apples up front, then comes a softness that I like about meads. omhper (12335), Stockholm, Sweden

Brandy? Tastes medicinal - sweet and syrupy. Nothing at all like beer. rlgk (3378), Vĺrgĺrda, Sweden

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 27, 2007 Rated. Apis Póltorak Jadwiga , Apis Dwójniak Staropolski and Gales Mead Wine alongside each other at home. Many thanks to RickGordon for letting me take the Apis ones home from RBESG07... Light Golden brown ... fruity and light nose ... light sweet tones ... nice honey shows through as you swirl in mouth ... leaves a warming mouthfeel on swallow, probably a touch sharper than others.
