Notes

OK, maybe officially it is a Braggot since it uses honey, but who can resist a good pun?

Nice flavor after 1 month bottle conditioning.
Very very nice after one year of bottle conditioning.

This recipe is average after 1 month, good after 6 months, and excellent after 1 year in the bottle.
