A dark crimson, floral, berry-flavoured mead in a beer style at 5.5% ABV. We’ve steeped whole dried hibiscus flowers to extract the flavour and colour into a tea, and ferment it with our custom blend of eucalyptus honey. We then finish off the mead with both, whole-crushed and pureed blueberries. The result is a tannin-rich, floral mead with a dry wine-like finish that is excellent with any meal consisting of red meat. As with all our meads, the Hibiscus Blueberry is made from natural ingredients with no additives, artificial sweeteners or colouring. Lovely in both sight and taste.

330mL bottle, pours a deep dark burgundy with a small white head. Aroma brings out plenty of blueberry upfront, with a touch of hibiscus, and fermented out honey. Flavour is semi-sweet, with hibiscus and blueberry in good balanced, with rather subdued wildflower honey. For a session mead, this works pretty well.

Tap at BeerFest Asia XI Edition, Singapore. Poured a murky dark red colour with a round bubbly off white head. The aroma is moderate blueberry, light honey. The flavour is moderate sweet, with a smooth, slightly watery, light tart blueberry palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Somewhat light and watery. Too light for a Mead. Still better than the classic but needs more body and should be sweeter.
