The name Pips is not only a nod to the seeds in fruits, but also to counting devices like the symbols on playing cards or the dots on a die. Though, most importantly, it is a nod to our son, Parker, who was born with special needs. Not knowing what his future holds, Pips will forever be a home to him as a family owned business.
We firmly believe in continuous improvement at Pips. We simply make what we enjoy drinking, and are beyond humbled when we can put a smile on even one other face as a result. That said, we actively seek out learning opportunities and always plan on listening to feedback from our customers. Every voice matters, for it is because of you that we are able to do what we love to do.
We thank you for your support and for joining us on this journey.

Mega duzo malin i mega duzo jakichs waniliowych klimatow. Bardzo cieliste. W zapachu maliny slodkie, w uscie nieco kwaskowate, co ladnie rownowazy calosc. Troszke takie „przetworowe”, a la konfitura. Ale wysoki level konfitury. Rozgrzewa.

Dosc cielisty. Aromat bardziej w owoce, miodowosci malo. Slodziak. Posmaki kwaskowato i ciut alko. Te borowki kapke cierpkie. Fajnie jak w ustach chwile potrzymac, bo wtedy naturalniejsze wrazenie (ciut ciut sztuczne posmaki sa, perfumowe). Klasa. S>A

Bottle shared by Angst. Thanks buddy! Pours deep dark red, still. Aroma has an insane amount of blueberry, cashews, caramel-like honey notes. Taste is out of this world crazy good too. Insanely concentrated blueberries, sweet jammy, light acidity, cashews, sweet honey backbone. Can't see how this could be any better. Just wow. Another straight 5 added to the mead list, hah.

Pours dark reddish purple. Smell is full, very intense, fruity, full on natural honey, syrupy. Taste is full, syrupy, sweet, very intense natural honey, very balanced, juicy, sugary but not too sweet due to the balance brought in by the fruit acidity. Extremely nice, which seems to be a given in pips.
