Historically a meade was made to celebrate the union of a couple and given to them for celebration of their marriage. Truly defined as a braggot, BBC Luna De Miel is a fermented honey ale flavored with a blend of raspberries and blackberries. Luna De Miel is a refreshing change from standard BBC offerings. Luna De Miel is effervescent, fruity, and light, yet warming from its moderate strength. BBC Luna De Miel is offered in a wine glass.

On tap at Bluegrass, pours a hazy dark amber with a small off-white head. Nose brings out lots of fresh sweet raspberries and moderate honey sweetness. Flavour is pretty weak, with moderately sweet raspberry, some pith and light honey. Not much depth or elegance. Meh.

Bottle at RBWG. Pours bright ruby with a fine, creamy white head. Lots of freah raspberry on the nose. Medium sweet flavor with more cirao, fresh raspberry, not too sugary, not strupy, little honey character. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Clean finish, more fresh, underripe raspberry, mild suggestions of honey. Tasty, good balance for the ABV.

Tap at 3rd & Main location. Honey and light raspberry aroma. Clear apricot pink with a white ring and light lacing. Light sweet raspberry flavor, very smooth easy drinking, alcohol completely hidden. Light watery body. This one could probably knock you on your can, as easily as it goes down.
