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.

A bit to much honey in the profile. Still a nice fruit profile. Pleasant and easy drinkable.
Impressed by the Balck Metal folks that order this

Bottle, 75cl. Clear, light copper colored with small off-white head. Puke-like aroma with red berries, honey, spices and a herbal touch. Acidic, sweet, full-bodied and warming. A bit unpleasant flavor too, more focus on red berries. Overripe strawberry. Unpleasant.
