Experience the fusion of honey's sweetness and malt's richness in this historical braggot inspired by the tumultuous year of 1771. This recipe, blending mead and beer traditions, is perfect for those looking to create a unique brew. Wonderfully aromatic with a hint of lemon, it captures the spirit of colonial resilience just before the American Revolution.
