Raven Mead by Williamson Mead and Brewing is a dark, enchanting mead that pays homage to Odin’s legendary ravens, Huginn and Muninn. In Norse mythology, these two ravens, representing Thought and Memory, would fly through the Nine Realms, gathering secrets and knowledge to bring back to the Allfather. This Blackberry Mead channels that same sense of mystery, depth, and power, weaving ancient legend into each sip. The mead begins with the rich, vibrant essence of freshly picked blackberries, creating a flavor profile that is both bold and full of life. The dark, purple hue of Raven Mead mirrors the inky black feathers of Huginn and Muninn, symbolizing their journey through the vast, shadowed realms. At 12% ABV, this mead offers a potent, warming embrace, much like the knowledge and wisdom the ravens carry back to Odin—heavy, deep, and filled with untold stories from distant lands. As the flavors unfold, the dark fruit notes evolve into a subtle yet complex finish. A lingering hint of dark plum emerges, adding a layer of depth and mystery, much like the whispered secrets brought back from Odin’s ravens after their long flights through the unknown. This complexity in flavor mirrors the weight of the wisdom the ravens deliver—profound, often unsettling, and always full of depth. Raven Mead is not just a drink; it’s an experience, a journey into the shadows of legend and myth. With its smooth texture, dark fruit complexity, and rich blackberry essence, it’s perfect for those who seek both the boldness of flavor and the stories hidden within. Steeped in both flavor and legend, Raven Mead invites you to embrace the darkness, as Odin’s ravens do, and uncover the secrets that lie within every glass.
