YELLOW WATERMELONS from my local produce stand! They're supposed to be sweeter and taste more like honey. Testing alcohol potential of the juice. Highly considering making a mead with them.
UPDATE: 1.030 SG from the juice itself and no additional sugars. Most likely going to do at least a 1gal experimental batch. Can't decide whether or not to try it in primary because several have said elsewhere that watermelon does terrible in primary and stinks horribly. Definitely going to save and freeze a few quarts of juice to use for backsweetening though.
