This Braggot was produced once and was exclusive to the AHA conference in Grand Rapids last month. Its a blend of orange blossom mead mixed with Imperial Stout and Flanders Red ale. Thanks to Michael for sharing a growler of this tonight! Pours a solid black color with a minimal head that doesn’t last very long. Huge citrusy orange blossom aromas mixed with huge roasty chocolaty caramel from the big stout and offset with the cherry pie tartness of the Flanders. Huge sweet citrusy honey flavor mixed with chocolate covered cherries offset with a slight lactic tartness that counters well and adds complexity. Thick sweet body with minimal carbonation. Fantastic mead, hugely complex. A sipper for sure but I enjoyed the hell out of it.
