Forgotten dandelion wine
View attachment 710777
Thought I was one of the last of a dying breed of Dandelion wine makers! I've got a few bottles left from my last batch about 6 years ago. Dandylion crop has not been good around my parts for awhile. People look at those beautiful yellow flowers with such revulsion. I see a yellow field full of wine and greens! A veritable grocery/wine store!!

I'm new to it! I stumbled onto it spring of 2019 and made a very small batch both that year and this year. Last years wasn't great, but I tweaked and improved it a little bit. I forget all about some of the little projects I have bottled around the house, and saw a few bottles in a random cabinet sitting behind some aging vanilla apricot mead. Dandelions are like the one thing I know I can consistently harvest haha. My wife's family workshop is basically dandelion fields forever.
 
BIL bought me a brew tour box through City Brew Tours.
Good experience, 8 beers and a virtual discussion with a cicerone & brewer every night. Each night wasn’t the best beer, but it was a different style every night.
