Time to finish and bottle the tea wine. This seems so simple a wine, yet has a lot of potential. We are both really curious how it will turn out and are already contemplating possibilities for this one for other flavorants!
From what I read, tea wine was really popular in rural areas of Great Britain until grapes became even cheaper than white sugar, and thus, grape wine took over. Tea wine is supposed to be "fruity" tasting, so we shall see!

Have you wondered what our VIP Lounge is like? Well, yesterday we made a spontaneous video while slightly intoxicated. It lasted nearly two hours and here's a few moments from it.
The quality is poor, we know. However, if you're in our VIP, you get the jokes, and you get to spend "quality" time like this with us.

Viking Blood Version 2 Racking and Initial Taste! So it's been about 4 weeks, and we believe fermentation is done. Will this version of Vikings Blood be any good? Will it be sweet like I wanted, or a bit dry? Will I spill it all over the table in racking? One way to find out. This is part 2 in the Viking Blood version 2 series of videos.
For the making of this Viking Blood, see this video: https://youtu.be/sZBbFX5wJwk

Today I drink beer, on camera, for your enjoyment. I realized after filming that I gave nearly nothing in the way of tasting notes. So here goes: The Pilsner was light, crisp, not too sweet, and was overall... refreshing. My beer was heavier, bit more hop-forward, without being overly hoppy. It was more roasty and earthy while maintaining its sweetness throughout. The Pilsner has a slight bitter finish, where mine was simply slightly malty on the finish.

Let's finish up this Raisin Mead and get it into bottles. We started it about three months ago, and it's cleared out nicely. This is a Raisin Mead, not a mead with a handful or raisins. It's based on raisins for flavor but has hints of lemon from zest and it's made with orange blossom honey to up the citrussy notes and offset the richness of the raisins. Watch for a tasting soon!

Braggot - Raw Ale with honey! You've been asking, and we deliver! A super easy braggot recipe to get you started. We even use the no boil raw ale technique to make this possibly the easiest beer type brew to make at home! No special equipment needed to make this braggot. Wait, what's a braggot? It's a beer like brew made with malted barley or other grains just like a beer, but at least half the fermentable sugars come from honey, like a mead. So it's a beer mead, or a mead beer. What do they taste like? Well... remember the commercials about "you got chocolate in my peanut butter" by Reese's? Sort of like... "you got mead in my beer" or "you got beer in my mead", but blended together they do make for an amazing combo.
See this Braggot mixed with ... Scotch? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKrpGsOPcMM
The recipe:
1.5 gallon batch (5.7 liters)
1.5 lbs (680 g) Pale malt or standard 2 row malted cracked barley
.5 lbs (275 g) crystal malt
1.5 lbs honey
.3 ounces of hops (I used cascade)
S-04 Yeast

Cyser is mead made with apples and honey. We did a Super Simple Cyser once before and it was pretty good, I must say, but... there was room to improve. It's 2021 and in the spirit of always evolving and striving to improve, we decided to give the Super Simple Cyser an update. One thing most people associate with apples is apple pie, so... that means spices, and cooked apples. That's in Part 2 of the Cyser video series, but, we intend to add that to our cyser.
Ingredients:
1 lb (ish, probably more like 1.25 lbs) Wildflower Honey (thanks Bev's Bees!)
Close to a Gallon of Apple Juice
Lalvin 71B yeast: https://amzn.to/3wPj9ZB
