Description
About Mjøderiet:

Behind Mjøderiet stands five firefighters from Bergen with a passion for mead - an ancient cultural drink that has only in the last few years begun to return to Nordic palates.

With backgrounds as home brewers and beer enthusiasts at various levels, we at Mjøderiet have ambitions to revitalize mead in Norway. We believe Norwegians are ready to take part in the international development where mead has made a comeback in several countries. We think mead is insanely exciting and is a drink with great potential.

Mjøderiet wants to spread knowledge about mead, revive the classic styles and experiment with new and exciting flavors. We want to have a foot in the old mead tradition and one in the new craft brewery culture, where we experiment with fruits and spices, different alcoholic strengths and different levels of carbonic acid.

The meeting room will have diversity.
We want quality, and genuine passion for precious drops.
For painstakingly collected honey from diligent bees. For real fruits and berries, for flavorful herbs and spices. And of course for exciting and unique flavor combinations.

We want to meet the people.

Bottle @ Bakgården. Clear, blood-red with a thin tan head that disappears immediately. Nice aroma of mild honey, red berries, malt, wood and smooth, warming alcohol. Taste is rich and balanced, still dangerously quaffable even if it’s very sweet. Seems to be a god balance here between sweet malt, honey and some lactose against mild acidity from raspberries and cherry together with the relatively high alcohol content. Complex and rich taste of honey, malt, lactose, cherry, raspberries, marzipan, wood, soft Bourbon and hint of chocolate. Full bodies, long lasting aftertaste and just pure joy. So tasty, so smooth - wonderful.

Bottle, 75cl , courtesy of the meadery. A deep ruby red mead, still. Honey, flowers and raspberry in the aroma. It's sweet and full-bodied, quite still on the palate, with honey and apple dominating the flavor. Surprisingly little alcohol detected, both in aroma, flavor and mouthfeel. Tasteful and easy drinkable. 191231

Bottle. A clear pinkish cherry red drink. The aroma has lots of strawberry and tropical fruits, with a touch of vanilla and honey. It's full bodied, lightly sweet and with a nice warming touch. A light carbonation too. Berries, tropical fruits, some chili and a pleasant sweetness in the flavor. Lasting finish with a pleasant chili touch and burn. 191230
