Starting out the year is the return of the fan favorite, Dwarf Invasion.  A Lambic-inspired beverage made with wildflower honey, balaton cherry juice and Styrian Golding hops, gaining the score of 95 overall from craft beverage enthusiasts on Ratebeer.com.

Annnnnnd now the NEW STUFF (insert drumroll)

We introduced the agave lime mead, Tuco-Style Freakout to the 2015 Michigan Mead Cup and was awarded with the Best in Show and a Gold Medal.  The orange blossom honey, agave nectar, lime juice and lime zest give the fans an experience that is best served with mexican dishes and of course, roof pizza. And we didn’t stop there, oh  no we did not… additional newly branded dark fruit cider, Stupid Man Suit, hits the markets.  Pulling from the 2001 movie, Donnie Darko and supporting the dark side with fresh pressed Michigan cider, balaton cherry, raspberry and black currant juices, drinkers will B. sure to B. Afraid of the Dark.

The re-release of The Zombies Take Manhattan (Imperial Zombie Killer aged in rye whiskey barrels) will also be unveiled in the second quarter just in time for the Spring Mead Fest held at B. Nektar HQ on May 7th.  You’re coming right?  Ratebeer.com fans have given a score of 99 overall and this bottle can pack a punch with a 12% ABV.
