(Ferndale, MI) – B. Nektar Meadery announced a couple new releases in its Tuesday newsletter.

If you’ve ever talked to our co-founder Brad Dahlhofer for more than 5 minutes, you’re likely to hear at least a couple movie quotes. Now he’s getting it on our mead labels. (Give it a break, Brad!!) 🙂
Inspired by a traditional Vietnamese ice cream, the bold star anise flavor may be too beaucoup for you. The white cardamom, juniper berries, orange zest and lime zest give it a twist that might seem like a major malfunction, but works together like a Marine and his rifle. Now sound off like you got a pair!
Less than 50 bottles of these were made, and we took a bunch for ourselves. So, you definitely won’t find these on store shelves. They’re only available at the meadery for a VERY limited time. We really want you to have one, but you probably won’t get one because we didn’t make enough. I guess it says something about the dichotomy of man, sir!
375ml bottle

There are still a few cases of The Sleeping Giant available at the meadery. Stop by on of the tastings to pick up bottle.
DESCRIPTION
Once upon a time, there was a mead that just kept fermenting. At 19%, this is one of our strongest meads to date. This wildflower mead was aged in a rye whiskey barrel for a long, long time. Be careful not to awaken The Sleeping Giant.
$25 / 375ml
