I bottled this a couple weeks ago and just tasted this last Saturday. The flavor is peachy followed by honey which is dry and then hops, which add a nice bitterness to this 11.26% Braggot.
nice

I really love this and want to age it, but will probably enter the rest in competiton. I appreciate the comment Herbaljoe, a friend from my homebrew club just brewed this last week.
