Here is a picture of Beowyn's Brew. Well worth the creation. Tasty!

During her pregnancy the wife wanted me to brew up something she could enjoy afterwards during the hot summer. After the birth of our daughter Beowyn (for which this brew is named), we were able to crack open this wonderful beer which we have made many of since. 82% 9# 2 row 9% 1# rye malt...

Hailsa and Blessings all, Thought I would post it just because I am proud of it. This is one of the meads I laid down a year ago open for the first time and getting the test. It was WONDERFUL! Looking forward to the other 39 bottles.

DEAR GODS! You must tell me if this does work! I would love to brew 50+ gallon at a time. Hell and night I do not even need a wedding as a reason, just the thought of it is worth it. Where did you get a 50 gallon drum like that if I may ask.

Actually by "definition" it is a cyser, however, a "real mead" requires more honey to gallon ratio so I would just say it is a honey cider instead of a cyser. Either that or a honey apple wine.

Hailsa and blessings all. I thought is would be appropriate to stop lurking in the background and actually start to try taking part in the discussions. Blessings to you all and thanks for the help in the past. Athair Fiach Dubh
