First taste of a melomel I made with my step-brother in January.
The backstory here is that he's 1 year older than me. He was always an AV club kind of guy and I was a Wrestling guy. One day, after playing a video game (which featured mead), we set about making our own mead. I forget the recipe (if there was one), but 6 months later, we decided it was time to take a taste from our Pepsi bottle fermentors (the "mead" was a mess of pellicle and mold) . Naturally, I made him drink it all and he got pretty sick (at least he vomited a few times).
That was my second homebrew experience. The first was a year earlier when we found one one of those "ferment in a bag" kits my stepdad had received as a gift in the 90's. We made it and it exploded in his closet while we were on vacation, ruining his entire wardrobe.
Now, I have 24 wine bottles of this stuff, so I'm hoping he'll enjoy it. I guess I was a pretty s***y stepbrother...![]()
Did you just become best friends? Did you want to do karate in the garage?
I'm so happy I'm drunk.
BTW, "grilling" is a verb. "Smoking" is a verb. "BBQ" is a noun. And it's pork.
Remmy, if I'm ever east coast or you end up in MN, we need to drink together. you'll drink me under the table, but it'll be a helluva ride getting there!

Water. I want to blame the idiot who scheduled fasting lab work for 11 am then I realized I was that idiot.For some reason I haven't had coffee since Friday and now I really want it.
Remmy, glad to see you're not only alive but living the dream. Maybe I should pack the truck and the trunk (coffee table) and drive up and crash your party.
