115/1096) Home:  Lanark County Blueberry Mead by Trafalgar Ales and Meads of Ontario:  **;  8.5%;  a "braggot" style mead;  brewed with honey and blueberries from Lanark County;  pours rather a bluish red;  honeyed nose;  a bit if a berry edge to the nose;  honey very prominent though berries off-set the sweetness;

I need to be careful here as it can be harmful to one's street cred to be seen praising Trafalgar.

116/1097) Home:  Ashnan by Beau's All Natural Brewing of Ontario:  **;  a 9.8%, 18 ibu wheat wine aged in chardonnay barrels;  brewed with wheat and barley malts;  winey nose;  sweetness largely offset by dry wine notes; an odd one but interesting;
