Blackwood meadery old mead brew

blackwoodMeadFascinating beer this one. It’s our very first ‘mead’. On the nose you just can’t get past the strong honey notes. The flavours mirror the aroma with honey but also a mix of either dates or raisins and sour apples. It has quite a high carbonation which adds to its personality. At 6% it’s more a sipping beer than anything else but that doesn’t rule it out as being quite sessionable. It would be easy to smash a few of these down.
