Of course, it's easy to screw a recipe up when you have the directions, probably a lot harder when you don't. Mead still sucks.

Iron Age Braggot Beer
Another beer recreation story. This beer was buried with an Iron Age Celtic warrior and appears to have been similar to Medieval braggot.
The story from NPR.
Apparently the recreated braggot sucked, which makes sense given the
honey content. Mead tastes like cough syrup, so if you took equal parts
of NyQuil, an amber ale, a couple squirts of almond air freshener and a
couple of peppermints, then you might be close.

Mead done well tastes excellent. We make a fair amount of it in Colorado in the town of Palisade.
ReplyDeleteToo rich for me, but I don't like most non-beer alcohols either. Colorado has some great microbreweries and brewpubs.
