First I'll go ahead and say that this was very first glass of any mead and it was a commercial version. (Redstone Black Raspberry Melomel) I actually have two seperate gallons of mead brewing in the closet now, but I jumped at the chance to try one when I saw the commerical version. It is dry and lightly carbonated. The honey flavor is definitely there on the back end. I can't stand any wine I have ever tried and even though this does have that smell I still appreciate the flavor. Is Redstone pretty typical? How does it compare to say a JOAM or other common varieties that everyone makes at home?
