ABV: 14.0% IBU: - Ticks: 8
This is a limited version of our classic braggot, brewed with 2/3 honey and 1/3 specialized barley malts, that has been further aged in a tawny port barrel. The additional couple of months of exposure to the portwine imbued oak has enriched the braggot with flavours of dried fruit, vanilla, cloves and hints of pipe tobacco smoke. The rich and saturated tastescape allows you to sail off to Madagascar with the crew of Adam Baldridge, while being comfortable in your favourite woolies at the fireplace.

Draught@TCBW2023. Hazy ambery brown colour with minor head. Aroma is honey, some wood, mild alcohol with some sweet malty and ryelike tones to it. Flavour is nicely ryelike tones with some honey, alcohol, wood and mild nutty tones. Hides the alcohol rather well, though the honey is on the sweetish side of things.

37,5 cl.bottle @ hotel room, Riga Aroma has sweet honey tones, alcohol and mild chlorine. Flavour has sweet honey, some alcohol, chlorine and menthol. Something this lacks the polish meads do have. Good anyway.

Took this just because of the score and because I liked the original. Smell- weak malt, weak caramel, alcohol. Foam- medium-thick, sweet, caramel, alcohol, acidic.Head is small, yellow, brown white color. Appearance- generic black bottle cap, bigger than the generic one. The label is simple, classic, yet I can't give it a bonus. From- snifter Taste - Sweet, alcohol, caramel, acidic.Very alcoholic, yet sweet, malty, caramel. To be honest, there is way too much alcohol feel here, still a decent brew. Pushed it a bit to give this score as I like the blue color it has on the label.
