Next time you're down here I'll give you a bottle of my prickly pear mead. But it's too late this year for the fresh tunas, they've all dropped.Any prickly pear fruits left? I found a mead recipe that uses them that looks delicious.
that is the sale price, correct? i just moved to st louis and have nothing to offer in trade :-/
Beware methanol from improperly prepped cactus fruits. Think they need peeling and blanching.

Read it in the chapter on fruit beers in the book Amercian Sour Beers. I'll try and dig that out tonight after work and see if I can elaborate. Something about the wax like compounds that exist in the skins of cactus flesh or something can by some organisms be processed into methanol. I don't know which organisms though, so if you're brewing clean vs sour beer might be different. I'll try to follow up.

Let me know if you're interested in a trade. I need muscadines and DME.
Thanks,

I know its late in the year but I just finished off some Prickly pear wine that was just AWESOME and I must have more. Since I cannot find the original brewer in Missouri I am forced to try on my own. Here is the catch......I am in Alaska. With that in mind I might be able to come up with some frozen blue berries and or frozen raspberries for trade. Freshly picked and frozen till later use. I have a lot of friends that love to make jams and jellies so I am sure I can come up with something for ya.
Let me know.
thanks
I would be interested, I can get my hands on local honey.
I will need to check, my father in laws best friend is a bee keeper. My stepdad just got into it. I figure he will be producing by the time the fruits are ready. Any certain type your looking for?
Kudzu honey would always be great but I wouldn't count on it.
I'd be in for some muscadines if you had access.

Kudzu is all over the place where my step dad lives, but I could not guarantee. I am pretty sure I can get my hands on some muscadines.
