Product Details

NB Artisanal Standard Dry Mead Making Kit

NB Artisanal Standard Dry Mead is a crisp, refined expression of honey at its most delicate. Fermented to full dryness with Wyeast 4021 Champagne Yeast, this mead offers a clean, subtle character and a naturally wine-like profile. Still, it’s soft and elegant — carbonated, it becomes bright and effervescent, reminiscent of sparkling wine or brut cider. Crafted with Ames Farm honey, every batch reflects the unique terroir of the hives, changing with the season, floral sources, and weather. A minimalist, traditional mead designed to showcase honey in its purest, most nuanced form.

Easy to brew

The brew process was incredibly easy and the directions were clear. I purchased a small beaker to go along with the kit for the yeast starter. I have yet to truly taste it as I'm letting it age but when bottling I had a little taste and it was great.
