Orange Blossom honey, Lemon grass, citra and lemon drop hops braggot. Delicious. Brewed 3 gallons on June 6th and I'm almost out.

Utilized a "fast fermenter" for both primary and secondary, very pleased.

Long time lurker and first time poster. I wanted to share what I would brew when stationed in Japan. Think this was my second batch of mead and Im surprised at how clear she came out.I thought Id ruined it when I came back from a deployment so I did a secondary ferm using distiller yeast. Near the end it was pushing 20-22% and tasted smooth till that hangover the next day.

And yes, the label is my own.

Thanx! It was! I will brew it again, it was so good. I posted the recipe for anyone that wants to give it a look.

Vanilla bean ice wine (tea) mead. Demi-sweet, slightly spicy and smooth. Very drinkable, but would be improved with a touch more tannin and acid. Easily my best mead ever. Alas, only two bottles remain.

This is my pineapple ginger melomel on the left and serrano pepper mead codenamed: Dragonfire. bottled on 8/1. We'll see how it looks in the fall. I'm hoping it will be ready in time for the holidays.

Should use dragon thai peppers if your going with that name.

Vanilla bean ice wine (tea) mead.

I know what all of these things are individually, but can't fathom how they work together.

What makes it an ice wine? Did you use late harvest/frozen grapes?

I belive ice wine has been freeze concentrated.

I understand your confusion. It's not a straightforward answer. On a vacation to Vancouver last summer, I picked up some ice wine-infused black tea as a souvenir (got some maple-infused tea as well). I added some of the tea bags to a batch of vanilla bean mead that was turning out pretty flat in the flavor department. The resulting mead is delicately spicy and tough to describe. If you ever try some of this tea (available online) you'll get a sense of the profile this mead has.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Methyglin -- two others not yet bottled.

 

[Frognostic]

This is the last batch of mead I made, at the end of July, with tea, lemon and fermented with Safale S-33 yeast. Water is Volvic mineral water. Honey is 1.36 kg of generic Rowse set honey. Original gravity was around the 1.070 mark but I can't remember exactly. If it ferments dry it'll be in the range of 10% abv.

Ooh! SWMBO and I are big fans of mango. I want to get a mango melomel going. Did you use whole fruit, juice or canned?

 

[OHVolsfan23]

We used a bag of frozen mango and bottle of mango purée juice from Costco. Half the bag and half the bottle in the primary and the rest in the secondary. 3 gallon batch. It's yummy! Not too sweet, like a good Riesling.

 

[skadalajara]

Cool, thanks. Gonna try this.
