draught. wow, this was certainly not a typical mead. The dark ruby was a little darker than I was expecting. The nose is sweet neough with honey, berries, and, yes, ginger. Now, it reaches the point of being medicinal upon tasting. There’s this artificial grape sweetness and thin honey, then the ginger pokes in its head. The finish is reminiscent of sweet tea and grap soda. Pretty thin for a mead too. I didn’t enjoy this very much.

UPDATED: MAR 9, 2006 Pours light golden with no head. Aroma of wildflower honey and sweet ginger. Taste has a light ginger spiciness without being extreme. This mead was similar to a ginger ale. Mouthfeel is a light bodied for a mead, medium bodied when compared to beers. The alcohol was extremely well hidden. I enjoyed it alot, but was hoping for more ginger.

Draught at brewpub. Pours a lightly cloudy gold. Ginger and light honey malt aroma. Crystallized ginger spicy and malt honey flavor. Light bodied and dry.
