Ok, so as you've already seen in a total noob when it comes to mead. I live in a small town in west/central PA, and despite having access to a fair selection of craft beers, which is the only beer I drink (besides HB of course) I have never even seen mead available anywhere. Due to PLCB regulations I'm guessing the only way to get it in this state would be a state run liquor store, or a local meadery. I know of many local wineries that put out excellent wines, but none that produce any mead. If there is anyone who lives in PA, and knows where to get any please help. I'm sure it's available if you know where to look. Perhaps by ordering online from finewinesandspirits.com, and picking it up at my local state store. In PA you cannot have wine, or liquor delivered to your house i.e. wine of the month club. I would like to get into making mead, as I think it would be a perfect solution to our families tastes. I like dry, but my wife like sweet (Moscato is her favorite). I could make a five gallon batch, fully attenuate, and then back-sweeten half to suit her, but leave the other half dry for my liking. However, I want to make sure it's something we both enjoy before investing time, and money into this endeavor. Thanks in advance for any help I receive.
