Silver Hand Meadery is a local producer of mead, also known as honey wine, in the Williamsburg area. Mead is one of the most historic fermented drinks found on Earth with the creativity of craft beer and the elegance of wine. It is created by fermenting sugars found in honey with additional herbs, spices, and fruits added to create unique flavors. Our meads typically have an ABV of 11% to 14% and range from dry to sweet, with beautiful clarity and color. Since mead is mostly an unfamiliar drink, we offer tasting experiences of the different varietals of honey we use ranging from Orange Blossom to Star Thistle and more.

Baby goblet @TreeRock. Glad the stock moves once in a while. Clear, medium gold, some lace. Smell is cooked strawberry, apples, fresh honey. Taste is cooked honey, very light citrus(maybe orange?), doesn't quite taste like strawberry. Mellow, bittersweet, slightly acidic, lingering fresh honey. Very slight carbonation, tart with some very light slickness. Good.

Bottle pour @TreeRock. Clear, bright, soft, peachy pink color. Intentionally flat. Smells of fresh raspberry/strawberry jam. Taste is soft. Fresh raspberry juice, mellow wax, passion fruit on the tail. Mostly dry. Absolutely no body. No honey character. Soft, watery, thin, fresh, un-complex & simple.
