    Hard Root Beer recipe

    Good luck with the build...hopefully it goes smoothly but we know how that usually goes.

    Honey: Light vs. Dark

    I for one prefer the taste of Darker Honeys. My first batch of mead ever was made from Wildflower Honey from some of my Dads Hives that was 25/+ years old...that honey aged very well and was a very dark brown almost black in color. I love strong honey.

    Hard Tea

    Hi Firstnten, I don't have Champagne Yeast on hand just the two wine yeasts I listed above. Do you see there being a problem using either of those? I'll forgo the Lemon Zest and just use the juice from the Two Lemons unless you don't think that is necessary either? You mention never having...

    How to brew Wine?

    +1 "The Joy of Home Winemaking" by Terry Garey is a good book to have around. Its not as technical as other books out there but still a good read for Beginners and seasoned winemakers.
