Garagiste - The Pits
The Pits is a melomel made with peaches, apricots, and nectarines from Garagiste
This mead sounds like a knock-out-of-the-park with the craft beer crowd. They LOVE stone fruits. I didn't love this one. Don't get me wrong, it was a good mead. There were some solid stone fruit characters, a little nutty, but I didn't get any softness that I look for with peach and apricot beverages. There was more acidity than I would care for. I also thought the finish was a bit astringent, I wish it would have finished a sweeter. The rest of the people I tasted this with loved it, which is great and goes to show you the diversity of tastes. Overall this is a good mead, and I can see how many would like this, but it was one of my least favorite Garagiste meads to date.
