Commercial Description:
This wine made from honey is considered to be the oldest drink known to man. Served with pride each year at the Scarborough Renaissance Faire, its honey aroma and sweet taste is always a winner.

Bottle courtesy of blutt59. Nice to see a meadery in Texas. Clear yellow. Has some toe nail polish remover in the scent. Smells of sweet alcohol. Very sweet taste, with some buttery elements as well. Finish is non-existent.

Bottle marked 9% ABV from blutt59 (thanks for saving me the drive). Pours with a clear, still golden body with no head. Aroma of honey, wax and alcohol. Taste is surprisingly sweet for such a low ABV, with wax and papery notes. Some minor off flavors in the finish. Thickish mouthfeel.
