Festival sample, Sørlandets Matfestival 2023. Served as ‘’Honey I’m home’’ at 7% ABV. Clear golden body under a white head. Aroma has malt, but the honey dominates without feeling like pure mead. Floral honey. Taste is sweet, malty and quite distinct honey. A bit herbal as well, low bitterness. Fine body with a sweet but balanced honey aftertaste. Nice sipper without being fantastic.

On tap at Sørlandet Matfestival. A golden colored lightly unclear beer with a white head. The aroma is flowery, in a honey way, with grassy, piney hops and a touch of pale malts. It’s medium bodied and not too sweet on the palate, softly carbonated, with a light bitterness. Honey flavor without the honey sweetness. Some pale malts too, with grassy and piney hops and a good flowery touch. Mostly flowery finish. Refreshing and interesting, not sure if I’m a big fan though. 220708

Not a mead at all. An ipa with honey. And a sharp astringent harsh one at that. Poor brewing practice. At the brewery in Vadheim Norway
