A Note on This Beer

Vikings made their Mead by fermenting honey, water, and yeast.

W A Meadworks follows that ancient tradition, but they bring their Meads into 21st Century deliciousness with quenching fruit additions and crushable bodies!

Like today’s extremely drinkable I Cran So Lime Away. With additions of real cranberries and lime, this exquisite Mead sips down with the surprisingly refreshing flavors of a Cape Cod cocktail. The base of clover honey sweetness evens out the fruit tanginess nicely, making the experience all the more delectable.

It’s an experience that normally doesn’t leave Long Island! But, the Tavoursters who have been able to try W A Meadworks’ previous creations gave them all 4+ ratings.

Ready to kick back with this cranberry-lime sipper and see what a real modern Mead tastes like?

*W A Meadworks is stacked in medals from some of the country’s premier Mead competitions, including the Texas International Wine Competition, the Mead Crafters Competition, Orpheus MeadFest, and the Mazer Cup International Mead Competition!

With Tavour, it's easy to beer it forward! Just head over to Tavour.com/gifts to send a gift box or gift card to the craft beer lover in your life. Cheers!

An unexpectedly light beer. With a 5.5% ABV, nestled up in a 12 oz can. I Cran So Lime Away will get you with the initial burst of cranberry you’d expect to get from a fruit drink, but the backend flavor of lime will create a perfect duo in which your tastebuds could enjoy. My only feedback is to offer this in a much larger can for this is all too easy to drink fast, leaving the desire for more!

I don't have much experience with meads, but having no carbonation was a little bit of a surprise. Not sure if that is what it should be like, but all research online says this is common with meads. The combination of cranberry and lime was refreshing at first, but I thought there was a weird aftertaste.

You can taste the fact that it’s been fermented, however, I do appreciate that the lime and cranberry flavors aren’t overwhelming to the tastebuds.

Definitely the honey flavors come though. Sweet, slightly carbonated, not too tart. Very nice mead.

Very easy to drink. Lime and cranberry noticeably there in a good way. Slight fizz but still crisp to be enjoyable.

Surprisingly easy to drink, the cran & lime are definitely flavor which work well together!

Great mead that goes down easy. Perfect balance of cranberry and lime that is a bit sour, unlike the sweetness of many meads.

I must have gotten a bad batch so that was nasty

Very good mixture of flavors. The tart cranberry and lime compliment the sweet honey very well.

It’s seems like there is an overwhelming taste of fruit

Just as described, cranberry with a hint of lime, honey forward, and last note of honey kisses the tongue

I wanted to like this as I do enjoy mead, though the heavy citrus flavor of lime was way overwhelming. When describing to a friend, I said it was like an alcoholic Le Croix without the carbonation.

Nice balance between honey and cranberry, which are both quite prominent. Lime, less so, but adds a nice finish to this refreshing brew.

Very refreshing and crisp. Bit sweet, not sour, nice tartness also. More cranberry than lime but a fantastic balance of each. Light and easy sipping.

Tasty. Acid from the fruit prevents this mead from being overly sweet.

Pretty darn good. Maybe needs a bit more tartness/lime/fizz?

This is the second mead I’ve tried from this brewery and I just don’t think they’re for me. Always taste like flat cocktails to me

I am not very familiar with meads so this was to see what I thought - it was ok - nothing overly exciting, but nothing bad - just OK -

Wow! This was great! Not super sweet because of the lime acidity.
