Certified Cicerone ® & BJCP Recognized Beerjudge Bartender @ Beerlovers Bar & Owner @ Siris About Beer. All ratings displayed on this site are personal opinions, and are not neccesarily to be seen as professional reviews. Some of these beers have been drank in conditions that were far from optimal. If you'd like a professional review of your beer, please contact me. Always interested in meeting up/sharing beers / trading beer . Next to beer, I have a big passion for Ice cider, Mead, and Sherry. Exploring the wine and spirit world asside of this all. Allow me to explain a bit on how I score. These are based on personal enjoyment. Quality & 'in style' are part of that enjoyment, but won't totally make or break a drink, if I myself have a different opinion. Whiskey : Rated on the website 'whiskeybase' ( account Kraddell ) Wine : Rated on the App / Site 'Vivino' ( Account named Kraddel . ) <-- with the dot. Still searching a medium for other spirits, so those aren't online for now. If you know anything, let me know ;) For all mediums, the score is decided like this : 100 : Absolute perfection. Must have sampled it at least twice, and be mindblown twice. 90 - 100 : absolutely amazing. I'd like a drink like this anytime, even if it ain't the cheapest. 80-90 : Very damn good. It'll depend a bit more on the price - but this is probably one to seek out. 70-80 : better than average . Will likely enjoy again if it's priced compeditive. 70 : Average score for anything with alcohol . // 50 : The absolute middlepoint ( pure H2O ) Anything with alcohol beneath 50 is simply not worth drinking (seriously, concider your liver) // 05 : The absolute, final downpoint . Songs shall be written about how this attack to the tastebuds has started a rage within, killing inocent bystanders for no apparent reason - other than the fact my life is ruined by drinking this. On the other hand, it's kinda interesting to try something THIS bad, so you should probably seek it out ! As you can see, I use the FULL scale , and a rating of 70 by myself isn't bad at all !

Kraddel (15451) reviewed Archívní 18letá dezertní medovina (klášterní - z dubového sudu) from Hrebecská Medovina 2 years ago

Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 7.5 | Flavor - 8.5 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.5

Pours a darker coppergold. Scent is extremely dense, aged sugars, very vibrant herbal notes. woody, but not as oak-forward as you'd expect. More like a cedar almost -but not AS aromaticly woody. probably due to the spices ? Taste is full, fairly sweet for sure. Thick, very complex. Lovely caramel notes. Rough oakyness, oxidative notes ( nutty) . very juicy. Bit sherry like almost, or an aged Vin Santo. Lovely ! Ending is a bit cola-like (trought he spices). Might all sound very weird for a mead, but this genuinly is one of the most interesting and nice, complex mead's i've tried to date.

Kraddel (15451) reviewed Přírodní medovina z Cidliny (zrání v dubovém sudu) (Maturing In Oak Barrels) from Včelařství Špaček (Petr Špaček) 2 years ago

Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 6.5 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 7 | Overall - 6.5

Pours clear, light pale golden yellow. Scent is full, complex, aged - but not particularly benefitially so. floral (sunflowers). tad drying plant-like ( like after they mowed a field of flowers in the summer, and the plant matter is drying) . Taste is medium to mildly sweet. Very high aromatic. oily, has this particular fragrance (mildly) of sunscreen. Weird tasting notes in this one, which posseses a truly unique bouquet for sure ! Not sure if I love it though... Alcohol isn't really mellow, though it's 'only' 11.8 - it really lays on top of the mead, rather than to nicely blend in.

Kraddel (15451) reviewed Medovina from Luboš Nosek (Včelí farma Nosek) 2 years ago

Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 7.5 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5

Pours clear, 'aged gold' color. Scent is strong, peppery almost , honey. definately to the rough side, but still very enjoyable. Taste is full, sweet indeed. Natural honey, with some 'aged' like factor as well. Remining me of some Polish ones. Very nice. perhaps not overly unique or memorable though, but who can complain for the price they charge ??? even seperately from that, it's just very enjoyable.
