Ok so there is this poem:
Heather Ale:

Now to tell you the truth I'm not 100% sure if they are talking about mead or beer here. I first read the poem in translation and in the translation it is definitely read as mead.
Anyhow gorgeous poem. It inspired me to make heather mead.
Any suggestions on the recipie?
I know i can add heather tips into the must and I've seen a couple of recipes online that have very different suggestion on whihc honey and yeast to use. Any recommendations? I'm particularly interested in using heather honey, but couldn't find any place to get it.
Thank you in advance
