Mead Journal: Rockbitter Dark Toast, early tasting

[matrix4b]

Ok, At a party I opened up one of the dark toast Rockbitters.  It was..Carbonated?!  Ok so I guess that it was still fermenting.  The carbonation lent a good taste but I fear that the Dark Toast and the medium toast are carbonated.  It was way early to tell but I think that the dark toast had a bit of rounded smokeyness to it.  We shall see.


In other news, I plan on starting 3 more batches this sunday, or at least 2 depending on time that I have availible. 
Here's the line up:

Peach Vanilla- Nutmeg?
Lime Vanilla Mint- Coined a Mojito
Blackberry Black Tea- This one is going to be my Darkside mead as I am going for a very dark color and a rich flavor.

The Bamboo is ready to bottle so when I do, it's carboy may go to a
Winter
Raspberry Thyme Cinnamon- Razz Time Sin?

The other batches that should be going after that are:
Late Spring
Strawberry Rhurbarb Allspice
Amerretto Cream

Fall
Chocolate Raspberry
Sunshine (formerly Pineapple Lime Mint)

That is all for now.
