C'mon, when you're drinking with your buddy and you want to yell out things like SEE YOU IN VALHALLA and ON THE MORROW WE DINE IN STO'VO'KOR you do NOT want to be drinking PBR. And that, dear friends, is why the world invented mead.
Mead says "I live in the now!" Mead says "I'm not scared!" Mead says "I sure know how to commit and I also enjoy honey and sometimes I might break the bookcase but I always apologize for it the next day and make sure I cover the damages in cash." Because mead isn't the drink of tyrants and fools. Mead is the drink of people who just like to have a good time.
Which is why we're offering a mixed case. You don't think you can drink mead ALONE, do you? That's crazy! Go get some pals and raise your glasses to your friendship. And if you accidentally slay a dragon before the night's over ... hey, that's just part of the traditional mead experience, right?
Chaucer's Raspberry Mead, 500ml 6-Pack
The flavor of this wine explodes with raspberry and honeysuckle. The wine is a blend of the Chaucer's Mead and a small portion of Raspberry Wine. Less sweet than the regular Mead, this wine finishes with a lingering crisp raspberry and honeysuckle impression. A blend of honey wine and fruit such as raspberry is known as Melomel. This blend of fruit and honey has been enjoyed for centuries.
The Fruit: The raspberries for this wine are from Driscoll’s berry growers in the Watsonville, CA area. The honey used to make the Mead is a blend of alfalfa, orange blossom, sage and mountain wildflower collected from the local bee keepers in Northern California.
Enjoy the natural, fruit flavors: Although this wine exhibits richness similar to a fine liqueur, this dessert-style beverage is not fortified and contains only 10% alcohol. To enjoy the full qualities of this wine, it should be consumed shortly after purchase.
Chaucer's Mead, 750ml 6-Pack plus Chaucer's Mulling Spices (2 Per Bottle)
Take a step back in time and enjoy the flavors of this popular Medieval Elixir. This Mead is made with similar recipes used in Medieval Times.
The honey for this specialty dessert-style wine is produced in hives throughout the Sierras. It is composed of a blend of three types of honey: cotton– alfalfa, orange blossom and sage. Each type brings a unique quality to the blend and contributes to the overall complexity of the mead. Alfalfa is neutral in flavor but yields a dark, amber color. The orange blossom brings a floral bouquet to the nose of the wine. Toyon, an evergreen shrub also known as California Holly, is lighter in color than the alfalfa and helps to balance the blend. Chaucer's Mead can be served chilled or mulled with the included spice packs.
Enjoy chilled or with hot spices: Served cold, it’s a dessert all on its own. Using the spice bag, serve warm as a hot spiced mead to enjoy the cinnamon, orange peel and clove flavors.
Enjoy its natural & rich flavor: Although this wine exhibits richness similar to a fine liqueur, it is not fortified and contains only 11% alcohol. To enjoy the full qualities of this wine, it should be consumed shortly after purchase
