Working alongside mead-masters Gosnells, we harmonized 2018 vintage Dabinett with a blend of British honey based mead. This bittersweet mash-up is a journey into the fruits of the orchard and of the hive. A late dry hop brings lush aroma, opening up to a palate of baked apple and honey sweetness, with a lash of moreish tannins at the finish.
This is cider meets mead, a bond between makers.

Очень интересный аромат сразу, есть мед и он смешан с фруктами, но не тропическими а скорее огородными, яблоки и груши, немного ноток листьев и как будто какого то зерна. Цвет странный, очень мутный при этом темно коричневый без пены. Вкус тоже хороший. Снова мед, но не концентрированный, затем яблоки, поменьше груш, снова как будто зерна немного, схоже на кашицу. Послевкусие не яркое. В целом интересный выбор.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers! Aroma of apples and honey, very sweet. Taste is not dissimilar with some of the honey coming through. Easy to drink but not amazing.

Panda at home, thanks to Fergus, 07/03/23. Almost clear golden with an off white covering that thins to a swirl. Nose is apple pulp, caramel, light sugars, grains, perfume. Taste comprises toffee apple, dusty hops, stewed apple, tannins. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. Decent drop.

Sample thanks to Grumbo. Pours a misty golden yellow, quite lively with a large white head receding quickly. Sweet nose with prominent dabinett, some mild honey. Taste is crisp with good dabinett definition, mead takes a backseat though some mild honey hints are present. Decent.

Can at home. Slightly hazy pour with only a little head. Aromas of (over)ripe fruit. Taste not too sweet. Very little honey flavours or aromas. Overall pleasant, but not mindblowing.

Can at home picked up from Brewdog online. A hazed peachy orange coloured pour with a loose white head. Aroma is odd, mealy apple, earthy berries, peach Danish, little stale. Flavour is composed of semi sweet mealy apple, some earthy honey, vanish, pancake batter.. Palate is semi sweet, light tart, mellow carbonation.. Little odd.
