The owner of my local homebrew store said he has mead that's been aging 10 years! I haven't developed that kind of patience yet lol

I have heard of people that have made a batch of mead when there kids were born. And saving it till the kid was 21 and drinking it with them. Mead is a wine after all as long as you don't let the air at it, it should keep for a long time.

It is still fermenting surprisingly. Not great temperature here right now... But still shockingly long compared to my wine making. (37 days later)
