Clear with no head retention, smells of honey, butterscotch, and toffee. The taste is quite sweet and a little boozy with flavors of wildflower honey, butterscotch, ginger ale, and caramel on a velvety smooth medium body. The finish is long and sweet with notes of burnt caramel, butterscotch, and alcohol. Overall, it’s not bad, it’s very much so a mead and that’s the dominant flavor here, sweet honey; however the butterscotch flavor adds complexity and is balanced well leading to perhaps the best version of an alcoholic butter beer I’ve had, albeit a bit overly sweet in my opinion.
