Empire Royal Mead

Aroma of fresh honey hits you right up front. Color is crystal clear honey. Flavor is very sweet and lightly acidic to start and finishes fairly sweet. Palate is thick and slick. I could envision the honeycomb this came from as I sipped. Thanks Hopscotch.

Unclear amber of color without any head. An aroma of honey, spice and fruits. A flavor of fruits, honey and spice.

Another old rating. Aroma of sweet and sugary honey notes. Flavor not really that much alcohol. Good overall.

Still gold pour. Aroma was a packet of KFC honey. Flavor was the same with a bit of booze. Ridiculously sweet finish. Mead!

Golden colored body is still with legs. Sweet honey aroma with some alcohol in the nose. Thick and sweet taste. Honey dominates with very light floral aspects, a tinge of alcohol and that’s it. Very well done. If you like Jadwiga, then this baby is for you!

Bottle pours amber color with no carbonation. Aroma is honey bee nectar. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor is straight sweet honey. I don’t detect any alcohol in this, but catches up to you rather quickly. Very nice tasting mead. Smooth.

750 ml bottle from 2008 summer secret santa. thanks to whichever florida ratebeerian sent that box. pours still clear amber. sticky legs coat my snifter. aroma of honey and baked apples. some alcohol along with floral and fruit notes. complex in the mouth. not the sweetest mead but far from dry. super slick and easy to drink but some alcohol does show on the palate. sips a treat on this cold canadian february eve. thanks again to the mystery sender.

Bottled. An amber beer with a slight hazy. The aroam is sweet with strong notes of flowers and light notes of honey. The flavor is very sweet with notes of honey. Nice one. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.
