Combines a rich blend of European Blossom Honey with a hit of new world hops

Our Hopped is fresh, light and refreshing; the hops balance the sweetness from the honey, and along with a touch of bitterness from the hops brings forward a floral elderflower flavour, leading to a dry and clean finish.

Bottle from Cork & Cask. Clear golden body with no head or lacing. Steady carbonation. Aroma of pee, honey and butterscotch. Flavour of sweet melon, lime jelly and toffee. Thin to medium body with a sticky mouthfeel. Soft fizz. The hops help to balance the sweetness.

33cl bottle from Beer52.com A cloudy pale apple juice colour, with lots of fizz and white head to start, but then becoming flat looking; interesting aroma with the herbal hops balancing the sweetness of the honey; sweet grape must taste, much better than I was anticipating; with a lingering sweet honey finish.

Straw blond. Very sweet on the lips. Thin body. Has an obvious honey sweetness but remains drinkable.

Sampled as Gosnells Dry Hopped Mead Headless pale golden liquid. Nice nose of mild herbs and fruit. Faintly hoppy, citrus. Sweet, honey but also spicy-herbal. Exotic fruit. Quite slick, the honey working, but not thick or syrupy. Good, original idea of dry-hopping.

Bottle from producer?s own stand at Maltby Street market, London. Pale gold with a light fizz. There’s still a hint of the apple from their standard mead, but the honey is more evident in this version and there’s fresh floral notes overlaying it; elderflower especially. Nice stuff actually, the hopped version is definitely an improvement over their standard mead.

330ml bottle from Sourced Market, St Pancras. Hazy yellow colour, short-lived white foam head and aroma of honey with floral & herby notes. Flavour is mellow honey, sweet, some citric lemon, and floral, earthy. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, dry finish. Interesting, quite OK.
