May 28, 2008 Yellow pink body that is still after the pour. The aroma is fruity, of cranberry and red apple, with a touch of raspberry. The taste is semi-sweet honey mixed with fruit (cranberry, raspberry) and a tart and bitter appleskin. Sweet, and has the same sugar content as some of their other meads, but the cranberry seems to create an acidity or dryness that is welcome. This is a nice replacement for fruit wine or ice-wine where a sweet and luscious beverage is required. I like it.

Jun 27, 2006 Bottle shared with a bunch of folks at Doug’s - courtesy of tupalev. Orange-pink colour. Aroma has odd notes of watermelon and cherry with a hint of cranberry. Flavour starts dry and tart, but turns sweeter in the finish. Not bad.

Jun 27, 2006 Bottle. Pours an orange-pinkish body with no head. The aroma is fruity which includes cherry pits and cranberries. Very sweet though the palate is lightish and fluffy. A certain juiciness with a touch of tartness at times. Not bad.

Jun 18, 2006 Item #11 at June 2006 Toronto cider/mead -fest - bottle from tupalev. Light peach colour, aroma of cranberry, alcohol and white wine - taste cranberry & alcohol - meh mouthfeel, overall I liked this one a lot, I felt the tart cranberry off-set the honey sweetness and the booze nicely.
