#5 New Moon Pomegranate Mead

Since it is around the time of the new moon, I went ahead and racked this one off the sediments and tried a sample. It's fermented down dry with very little detectable honey taste or aroma. It's pomegranate sour, no blueberry present (I used POM blueberry in this one). I've read that pomegranate wines and meads begin very sour but get much better, so I'm not worried. The sourness isn't unpleasant, just dominating. The color is sort of a light maroon.

I topped off with approx. 8 oz POM.
