I'm a total brewing newbie (except for some fermented soda's... I make a decent lemon-ginger soda), and thinking about taking up some Mead making... Busily reading about Joe's Ancient Orange Mead in the Recipe forum.
I'm wondering if there's a "Traditional Mead" on the commercial market that a guy could try to see if he even LIKES the stuff!
I tried a Mead, a metheglin, I think, at a winery in North Dakota a few years ago - but didn't care so much for that one.... far too reminiscent of grass clippings. I'd love to try a "lightly sweet" mead reminiscent of... oh, I dunno... Honey?
Suggestions of a commercially available "traditional mead", that hobby mead-makers don't hate, to try out appreciated!
