11026 (1886), USA Apr 2, 2006 Bottle. Pours a lightly hazy orangish color, much like overripe apricot meat. Aroma is wonderful, assertive dried apricot and candied apricot. Sweet yet tart to the nose. Medium bodied, a little drying. Flavor is modestly tart, a treat from some meads that can be a bit sweet or overly cloying with honey. It almost gives you that hop bite like an IPA/APA that makes you want to keep sucking it down. Tasty.
