-5 gal is a classic Mead with 2013 honey from a local apiary.
-5 gal is another classic Mead from a 2015 honey, same apiary. I've read that the fresher the honey the better. So I can't wait to get some fresh 2016 honey and see

I made my very first mead on January 1, a simple recipe found on StormtheCastle.com. Beginning on June 14 and then every Sunday thereafter, I began making one gallon of mead. Yesterday I made my first melomel, a raspberry flavored affair. So altogether,I've made 7 gallons.

Since my last update, I've made 1 gallon of a traditional sweet mead, a 2-gallon batch of must that I plan to divide separately into 1 gallon melomel batches (not sure what flavors yet), and a 5-gallon batch of chocolate mead. So that's 8 more gallons for me -- 14 gallons total thus far, though I'm still trying to decide what I'll be making today and whether it will be 1 gallon, 2 gallons, or 5 gallons...so many indecisions to make! 685
