Braggot

[Steve Ruch]

I pitched the yeast on the American wheat beer part of a braggot this morning. Once fermentation is mostly done I'll add this.

Nice! I need to stop messing about and use my remaining honey in a Braggot.

I would love to hear the process on this going forward.
So, you brew a wheat beer, add the honey, and do something close to a mead with it? Is it open fermentation like a mead?

I brew braggot as half beer and half mead.
I don't do open fermentations.

It's a beer that sounds better than it is

I've brewed one a few times different variations and there are couple breweries around me that have/had them. Kinda fun experiment not a favorite

I'd say it's a combination historical / enthusiast beer. You're not going to want it every night, but it is a pleasant break from IPAs.
Locals did one a year or 2 back and it was quite good.
