Mead is the shizzle. My wife made a couple gallons a year back when we still had the room for it. Good luck. STERILIZE EVERYTHING.

Thanks. I love it too but have been slack, and not made any in many years. However, I am still very proud of the 3 first-place Mazer Cups that I won back in the 1990's. My best effort ever was a dry prickly-pear mead, it was pure ambrosia. The key is age - at least one year in the bottle.

Amen, brotha.

We crack open a bottle every thanksgiving. I baste the turkey with it and we all drink it. At this rate we're good to 2015 but after that... shit, I'm gonna have to move back to Washington.
