Golden Rule Mead 'Scenery' Off-Dry Mead Vermont 355ml

“Brew unto others”... Golden Rule Mead was founded on the principles of human creative expression and respect - for home and all the living beings in it - in the hopes of inspiring people to come together to share that mutual respect and inspiration. That home is Middlebury, Vermont, where each mead starts with 100% Vermont-origin raw honey, and is flavored with fruits, spices, herbs, and vegetables from farms around the state. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and glass using wild mixed cultures that are propagated in-house, with bran from locally grown organic rice as a yeast nutrient. The finished meads are not pasteurized, filtered, or fined, and see no sulfur or synthetic additives at any point in the process. 

‘Scenery’ is fermented with yeast originally propagated from raw Vermont honey, and in each batch the yeast can’t quite finish all the sugars, resulting in the only mead Golden Rule makes that doesn’t finish totally dry, but off-dry instead. Generous honey aromatics are accented with a whiff of strawberry and ripe pineapple from the fermentation process. 11% ABV
