Only sweet, still mead. The stuff that is made dry like champagne has never been any good at all.

I tried a version of it once YEARS ago. It was the still kind, honey-ish flavored. It was wierd...kinda sweet, yet bitter at the same time. Didn't like it, and didn't try it again.

Oh lord, yes it does. Not as bad as Drambuie or B&B, but it's up there....
Barenjager is really like a shot of honey with it making you drunk.
That's about as simple it gets.

God yes.

Best mead I've ever had, hands down. The King's Mead is made in the old-style, just honey, water, and yeast. It's fking amazing. Not nearly as sweet as a dessert wine like a late harvest riesling or roussanne, but still packs quite a punch.

I have yet to find one that I enjoy, either too sweet or too dry  Need to find a middle ground one but not willing to fork out more money only to end up with another one I don't like.
However, you just reminded me! Tried Jack Daniels w/honey... my god it's so good! Downside, friend brought it from the states and I can't find it here yet

no. it's fking disgusting. you can get little airplane sized sample bottles of it at bevmo to try though. of all the new honey bourbons and brandies, i like the wild turkey one the best. i have a bottle of it for when i want something disgustingly sweet. but really if you want a honey alcohol, barenjager is the way to go. it's so good.

They do sell it in stores.
Oliver has about 6 or 7 different flavors of mead.
Wineries are not stores.  I am qualified by the Circuit Court to testify as an expert on what is and is not a store.

Oh and to answer OP...I have never tried it, because I've never seen it for sale. I keep meaning to find some and try it, but psh...effort seems to be required.

This winery sells wine in every major store in the midwest.

Oh you are being technical about it. What those things are in the midwest ... they do not qualify as stores elsewhere. We call those things flea markets here in the east.

Mead is hit or miss for me. So much so I haven't bothered making any yet though I still want to try. Cider on the other hand... that's yummie.
Why not try a cyser (apple mead)?
16 lbs honey (clover works best,but I've had good results with wildflower too)
4 gallons fresh local cider
4 cinnamon sticks
yeast energizer and yeast nutrient
Narbonne or Cote des Blancs are my favorite yeasts to use with this.
Use 4 campden tablets to kill natural yeast in cider 24 hours before adding honey and pitching yeast.
Drinkable in 6 months, though likely bitter. Bitterness wears off with time. Aging for a bit with wood chips is suggested, but not necessary. Tastes the best after 2 years.
