It tastes like honey that's been in the pantry too long.  :P

Not if you get the good stuff.  (I have yet to successfully make "good stuff" in terms of mead.)  One thing to watch out for is bogus meads.  You'll frequently see what's basically white wine with honey and herbs dumped in called mead.  Read the label carefully, make sure it's made from just honey and water.  Some people like mead with apples and other fruits, but for me personally that defeats the purpose.  A nice clean mead with a teeny bit of spice and you've got joy in a mug.

I like it warm and spiced, I'm just not overly fond of it plain.

My preference for honey gone mad is Barenjager Honey Liqueur
Tastes like pure honey, kicks like whiskey, and is a great mixer, added to lemon or tea.

I still haven't gone ahead and either ordered the mead from that site you linked PG or looked for one in a store.  Just how potent is mead?  Is it really tasty then whomps you on your rear end?

Normally it's about on par with plain old wine.  (Note that Barenjager isn't mead, it's more like a schnapps or honeyed liquor and it will perform tasty but appalling damage on the unsuspecting.)

Usually IPA are too dry and thin for my tastes, but I had an Indian Indian Pale Ale at a local Indian restaurant and it's become one of my new favorites.  Think the brand is Taj Mahal.

Thin, eh?  Anything too much thicker and you'd need a fork and knife.
