MC033: Mazer Cup 2016 Recap

We had a blast just a few short weeks ago at the 2016 Mazer Cup. In this episode, you’ll hear about the trip, the cool people we met, and the great meads we had. Well, mostly the trip and the competition. There were so many meads to be had, it’s hard at this point to discern one from another.

Tysen and Allen will start off with a “judging” of one the mead from Episode 4. It didn’t win, and from what we can tell got infected. But we wanted the feedback nonetheless. We also submitted the #CyserChallenge mead from the Serious Cyser Symposium. Allen made this one, and due to some difficulties getting it to clear it was doomed from the start. Tasty, just not competition worthy. Dan Daugherty (CiderSage and CiderSchool) however walked away with a golden mazer for his Dab of Liberty collaboration with Matt Williams (Winemaker’s Academy).

We’ll also chat with Pavel, @cidermead on Twitter, who stole the home competition with 6 total awards (2 gold, 4 bronze). Recall we met Pavel during the West Coast Cyser and Session Mead Tasting.
