This Braggot features local blueberries and honey, a very limited amount of hops and is fermented with Belgian style yeast. The result is a straw-colored beer with blueberry highlights. On the first sip you will notice a light sweetness along with citrus notes followed by a well-rounded malt character. This beer has a medium full body.

12 ounce bottle 2/6/24. Nightcap. Dark brown, medium tan head, average retention. Aroma of honey, toasted malt, blueberry, cherry. Taste is honey, toast, mustard, blueberry, grape. Well balanced, interesting. Probably from State Line Liquirs, but I'm not sure.

$2.xx 12oz bottle from Total Wine Vegas. Clearance sale on 15% braggots? Sure. 10oz glass back at the hotel. Hazy, lemon iced-tea, stiff off-white head. Smell is simple toast, tea, floral hops. Taste is sweet tea, earth, minor Belgian yeasty notes, some berry acidity but no blueberries till a flash at the end. Quite bitter breakfast cereal, big acidity & Aspirin on the finish. Obviously big, very starchy & strong ale-like. Nah.

Yeast, elderberry, chemical nose. Clear copper, thin head. Elderberry, honey, acetone overtones. Medium to full body, easy carbonation, very warm. The tendency would be to throw this down like a beer, but that would be unwise. This is definitely a sipper. I'm not really a fan.

Bottle at home, nice finding an affordable mead and in case this style gets broken out someday I need dem braggots. Pours orange gold not head. Nose is honey and blueberry. Tastes decent enough light blueberry but not artificial, honey but not too sweet, some grass, lemon, and wheat. Some sweetness and crisp enough.

Sampled on draft at Tapped this beer poured a murky reddish color with a medium sized foamy white head that left decent lacing. The aroma was sour yet malty with honey, bread, blueberry, a bit of tannin and a boozy presence. The flavor was tangy blueberry with bread crust, honey and orange marmalade. Long honey and blueberry finish. Moderately full bodied. Alcohol well contained. Excellent.

Tap at Hollywood Gardens. Clear pale with a slight orange hue. Nice lacing. Barely any co2 on teh palate. Mouthcoating. Thicker brew, nearly viscous. Odd nose. Taste is difficult and a little like cough medicine. Actually was hoping for something better considering the the other brews I've tasted that were labeled braggot. Dissapointingly boozy. Very unique, nothing like a mead.
