Grimfrost Sweet Honey Mead Jarl's Brew...$26.99 / 750ml
A pure, sweet honey mead with a rich taste of Viking Age Sweden.
Swedish honey predominantly comes from wildflowers, such as white clover, raspberry blossom and lingonberry blossom. The Jarl’s Brew uses raspberry blossom honey, as well as the much rarer linden honey. In comparison with a dry mead, it contains twice the amount of honey. The mead has also matured up to two years before bottling, allowing it to find its prime. The Jarl’s Brew is a sweet mead that fits to be enjoyed after a meal, with dessert or on its own.

• Alcohol content by volume: 13%
• Ingredients: Honey, Water and Yeast.

Honey has always been a rare and luxurious commodity. Jarl’s Brew holds enough honey for a jarl, a king or even a god.
