Honey and Gewurztraminer grapes with elder flowers, hops and grapefruit.
We were somewhere around Detroit, on the edge of the city, when the fermentation began to take hold. In the tank we had hundreds of pounds of honey, gallons of white grape juice, a whole galaxy of multi-colored elder flowers, hops, grapefruit zest... Also liters of fresh grapefruit juice and water. Not that we needed it all for this batch but when you’re a maker at B. Nektar, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. And why not? If a drink is worth making, it’s worth making right.
