Braggot Brewing With Black Bull Turbo Yeast

Mead is one of the oldest known fermented beverages, while beer is among the oldest alcoholic drinks discovered, so it stands to reason that some brilliant person would combine both into what has come to be known as braggot. Braggot can either be made in its own separate style or added as part of another beer or mead’s production, and making one directly at a bar (though tavern owners usually stick with house blends). With numerous recipes out there for creating amazing braggot beverages, creating truly outstanding braggot could become possible!

At its heart, the goal is to produce a beverage with perceivable honey and beer qualities, using appropriate ingredients and selecting yeast with high alcohol tolerance for best results. To achieve this effect, yeast strains with higher alcohol tolerance are typically recommended for optimal results. Black Bull Turbo Yeast is an ideal choice for fast, clean fermentation with high temperature tolerance – making it the ideal solution for any strong or high gravity beer style. Lower-strength braggots can be created by adding honey either during or after the boil, then tossing it directly into the primary fermentation before chilling the wort, while higher-strength versions are often fermented as separate beverages before being blended with beer at some point prior to packaging.
