Brochet Mead

[grantsglutenfreehomebrew]

Hi all. Anyone made a brochet mead that was hopped? I made one using 2kg of Capilano Honey and brocheted it for 45 mins. It became a nice golden/amber colour but the Cascade hops has made it taste orangey. Drinkable but could be nicer. Got any ideas or experience? Love to hear from you.

Never heard of Brochet mead...just did some research and it sounds really interesting! Burnt mead...i'll have to try it before even considering adding hops.

Mine wasn't really burnt, more caramelised. The burnt (black) stuff does look interesting though.
