    Why sweet first sip, but second later very bitter after taste

    This gives me hope as it needs more time to mature. ill do a taste in couple month hope it will be little better, if not ill just keep them bottle fore a year or two. Thanks MightyMosin

    Why sweet first sip, but second later very bitter after taste

    Hi Guys been making mead for couple years now, one of my batches I just was bottling and realized it is sweet and pleasant in first sip, but second later very bitter after taste. I wanted to know if I can save this mead to sweeter after taste? My start gravity was 1.150- final gravity 1.052 ...
