2.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 thechandler (381) - Charleston, West Virginia, USA - JAN 9, 2012
Pours a straw yellow, no carbonation. Extremely light aroma of sweetness. Only my second mead. Certainly better than the first, but I guess I might just be a beer guy.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 mikesaum (192) - Ohio, USA - DEC 13, 2011
Only the third mead I have tried and by far the worst.pours very pale yellow color, no legs at all. Aroma is booze white grape and honey. Taste is weak, to strong on the white grape aspect, the ABV is quite noticeable as well, I wanted a much stronger honey flavor, but its mostly fruits, some apple and pineapple hints, thin mouthfeel, not the viscous body id like. Not bad overall but its a very poor mead.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a white wine glass. Pours almost clear with a yellow hue and no head. No lacing, no carbonation, medium body, and smooth texture. Taste is medium sweet honey and alcohol. Alcohol not covered.
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 JStax (700) - Devola, Ohio, USA - JUL 10, 2011
Poured from a bottle into a snifter. Aroma is white grapes, alcohol, and perhaps a touch of honey. Taste is super sweet green grapes, light honeysuckle, and then a punch of alcohol and a burning sensation as it moves to the back of the mouth. This ones a bit overly sweet and lacking in the honey region for me.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 JaBier (3035) - Capital City, Ohio, USA - JUL 5, 2011
Drinking it right now from a 750 mL I’ve had for a couple years. Clear pale yellow pour with no carbonation and not much in the way of legs. Aroma is honey and pineapple with slight notes of citrus and stone fruit. Pineapple on the tongue first, followed by slightly tart citrus with a sweet and mildly tart pineapple finish.
2.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20 jmagnus87 (524) - Carbondale, Illinois, USA - MAY 30, 2011
From a 750ml bottle from Pick’s Liquors poured into a snifter.
Pale yellow color. Some black chunks floating in it...
Smells like alcohol and citrus fruits
Taste is heavy sweet and light sour. I can definitely taste the honey and there is a strong taste of alcohol.
Medium bodied, slick texture. soft carbonation and a long sweet finish.
Overall, it’s not too bad. Has a nice honey flavor. Only downside is the strong taste of alcohol. Not really my thing. Also, the chunkies floating in here are kinda uncool. But, at 9 bucks a bottle its a pretty good deal.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 nearbeer (2578) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - APR 22, 2010
750 ml. Hazy pale straw color with a small spit of bubbles hanging around. Nose is earthy grape, honey comb and light funky must. Taste is the same with a nice honey sweetness, and no alcohol evident. Light body finishes very dry and is much more drinkable than a white wine.
