Braggot brewed with apples and cinnamon - a hybrid of mead and beer.
This amber-coloured braggot opens with an inviting honey aroma, layered with notes of baked apple, dates, apricot and peach, gentle nuttiness and sweet vanilla. The flavour is bold and warming with low carbonation: slightly sweet at first with light malt character and pronounced honey notes, complemented by ripe, syrupy yellow plums, apples and peaches. In the mid-palate the profile becomes drier with a touch of acidity. The finish reveals toasty bourbon vanilla and subtle spice, light oaky tannins, soft cinnamon and oxidative sherry-like notes. A complex, warming and full-bodied braggot combining playfulness with depth of flavour.

Amber colour, not much head. Cinnamon, vanilla, honey, apple in the nose. Medium-bodied. Flavour has also cinnamon, lots of booze, ginger, honey and crackers with whiskey vibe. Warming alcohol. Slow sipper. It's heavy on alcohol.
