Batches #1, 2, 3, 4, and 5: Tasting notes

Over the last few months, Amy and I have been tasting the first 5 batches. The results are as follows:

• Batch #1 mellowed nicely, but the overall alcohol level made it unenjoyable.
• Batches #2 and 3 never mellowed and, while not bad, were very dry and flavorless.
• Batches #4 and 5 mellowed nicely and were fun to drink. Not as dry as Amy and I would prefer and a little tart, but I personally would be happy to have a few cases around at all times.
