Dansk Mjod Odins Skull Mead

If Viking Runes is Dansk Mjød at its most exotic, Odin's Skull is the distillery at its most primal — a mead built to honor the most complex and fearsome character in Norse mythology. Brewed with honey, hops, cinnamon, and sour apple juice, Odin's Skull is intended to honor Odin's name: "Master of inspiration and fury." Fermented from a base of honey with malted barley and ale yeast — closer to braggot-style brewing than traditional still mead — the addition of hops introduces a dry, bitter counterpoint to the honey sweetness, with cinnamon and apples layering warmth and fruit into the fermentation. The nose is intense with honey, warm cinnamon bark, and baked apple, while the palate delivers rich toffee, dried fruit, and toasted nuts with a warming spice character that builds through a long, slightly bitter hop finish. Bottled at 19% ABV, it drinks like a dessert wine with a Viking's disposition — sip it chilled, at room temperature, or slightly warmed alongside dark chocolate, aged cheese, or spiced desserts. This one ages beautifully too. Buy Dansk Mjød Odin's Skull Mead online with fast shipping right to your door.
