Mango mead with black pepper added.
Many years ago, a mysterious book was discovered by a group of friends in a Ferndale, MI basement. A translation of its contents revealed the recipe for an ancient beverage using mango juice, honey, and black pepper. What they didn’t realize was that creating the beverage had dire consequences. Stricken by fear after its compleation, the friends tried to contain the terrifying forces into this very bottle. Once opened, however, no one can say for sure if it can be conquered.

Süßlicher Antrunk, milde Honignoten, in dem hintergründig leichte Pfeffernoten erkennbar sind. Stärker ist aber die konstante Süße, süffig, Noten vom Apfel. Gut! 7/11/9/10/11/9

On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2014. Crystal clear looks on this, almost like a pale cider in the glass. No head what so ever. Smells like sugar syrup added some honey and lots of wood juiced from birch wood. Quite summery aroma and there's also some apples. Nice enough really. Strange tasting. As good as flat with a thin oily mouthfeel. Like drinking wood juices also. Some floral spices, green grass, lemons and apple juice. Strange but interesting. 02.05.2014

Keg at CASK. It pours very pale gold. The nose is sweetish, peppery, dried mango, light florals, melon, honeysuckle and honey. The taste is sweet, light fruity tang, apple, melon, pear, mango and honey with a dry finish. Light-medium body, light carbonation and slightly oily mouth-feel. Quite subtle and quaffable. Pretty tasty.

Cask at CASK Pub and Kitchen, Pimlico. Very light yellow. Aroma is overwhelmingly black pepper, with a bit of slightly overripe papaya. Taste is a simple sweet/sour, with pepper spiciness dominating the finish and aftertaste. Incredibly odd. But tasty.

Keg at cask pub and kitchen 5th birthday. Aroma is big black peppercorn. Rustic honey. Flavour is sweet lightly spicy peppercorn, and slight green apple. Palate is light sweet with moderate carbonation. Lingering spices and fruit. These mini meads are a bit lacking.
