B. Nektar Necromangocon


Necromangocon is a mango and black pepper mead. It’s recipe was translated from a mysterious book discovered by a group of friends in Ferndale, Michigan. Much like the Book of the Dead from Sam Raimi’s cult classic film The Evil Dead, terrible forces were unleashed, and great consequences followed while trying to contain the conjured spirit.  

This draft style mead pours a clear honey gold color and coats the glass with micro bubbles. Mild sweet aroma with a hint of the advertised mango. First sip. Big mango flavor. The pepper flares on the back of the throat, complimenting the sweetness provided by the mango. A great balance between the two flavors. The finish has a slight tangy tartness that enhances the enjoyment even further on this well rounded beverage. What I really like is the black pepper never intensifies, or becomes dominant. It keeps a nice constant ever so mild heat/ burn presence. This offering from B. Nektar is a deliciously addictive combo of flavors, almost as if my taste buds are being possessed. It’s as if when opening this bottle, I released a spirit that wants to take over....

B. Nektar is awesome. Mead is good for you. Listen to Chin Chin, they know what they’re talking about. Spend all your money on B. Nektar meads...

Seriously folks, this is great stuff. Really good by itself, and delicious with food. Grab a bottle and get possessed!

6%ABV 

Cheers!!!
