Description
Gosnells was founded by Tom Gosnell in 2014 after he was inspired to turn his hand to experimenting with mead during a trip to the USA. As an avid home brewer of cider and perry, Tom had brewing experience that he quickly applied to developing our signature style of light, crisp, sparkling mead. From those early days our team and brewery has grown, but our aim remains the same: to re-popularise mead and bring it back to the people.

On 23rd Jan 2019 I decided to change all my 34 'ticks' for no-beers into rates. Every 'tick' scored a '3', this will not change as they become 'rates'. My 'ticks' were Ciders, Meads, Perrys and Sake. This is a mead!

Bottle sampled at The Vanguard at 1000 Trades, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of dry hopping upfront with wildflower mead. Flavour is along the same lines, with wildflower honey and wonderfully integrated dry hopping. Complex and layered for such a light mead. Very good.

330ml bottle from New Forest stall at Borough Market, London. Pours a hazy yellow gold colour with a large frothy white head that dissipates away and mellow fruit & honey aroma. Taste is sweetish, honey followed by tart, gooseberry, citrus zest, fruity. Smooth & creamy mouthfeel, medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying finish. Nicely drinkable.

Keg at Gosnells. It pours hazy greenish - yellow with a small white head. The aroma is very, earthy, umami, big liquorice character, floral and savoury. The taste is sweet tangy honey upfront, honeycomb, cakey, then out of nowhere appears some saltiness, chewy, liquorice and umami with a tangy finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Not sold on the balance, or lack of. Weird.
