Mead - also know as honey wine - is an alcoholic beverage that is produced by fermenting a solution of honey and water.
B. Nektar Meadery opened in 2008, in Ferndale Michigan. It's an inspiring story that came to fruition after a group of friends fell victim to lay offs. They regrouped, formed a plan, and through hard work and passion for the craft, were soon producing award winning meads.
Zombie Killer - clear red grapefruit color with an aroma of honey and cherries. Nice tart pie cherry flavor with notes of honey, and crisp apples. This mead has a light body with a mild carbonation. ZK has a pleasant sweet and sour finish with a silky dry ending. This mead is addictivly delicious. I really like how the tartness helps balance out the sweetness of the honey. I also like how all three flavors, cherry, apple, and honey, are easy to distinguish on the pallet. Being a dominate beer drinker, I found Zombie Killer very enjoyable. I've tried quite a few craft beers this year, and ZK easily rates high with some of my favorite brews (It is sitting pretty with at 99% on ratebeer.com). A very impressive offering from B. Nektar Meadery, definitely lives up to the high praises I've heard.
Oh, yeah, and my wife thought it was awesome too, which is never a bad thing.
Cheers!!!
