Currently working on a cherry limeade mead. What’s everyone got going?

The Rubee is back!

Cranberry/orange-honey wine from Queen’s Reward in Tupelo, an excellent fall drink with a sweet warm citrusy flavor (edited)

Queen’s Reward

Recently went to Queen’s Reward in Tupelo, MS. They have a great selection of meads and personally I can’t recommend the “Rubee” enough.

What’s been the weirdest mead you’ve had?

I had a friend make some with a bunch of bitter seeds and stuff. It was basically made to make you vomit if you drank more than a bottle (friendo had a drinking problem and used this to moderate).

Dragon fruit x pineapple

Started this one a week ago. Very excited to see how it turns out!

Mango habanero mead

For this one I used one perfectly ripe (and accidentally dropped) mango, two diced habaneros, and 2.5 pounds of honey. This is my favorite mead to make. My friends and I love it.

Trying my 6 month aged mead

Starting the celebrations early with my first mead I made. Just a simple mead no extra flavors. Opening my 6 month aged blueberry and my 4 month aged strawberry banana mead tomorrow.

My first mead

Swedish honey, little bit of ferm o, cinnamon and clove flavoured black tea, water and EC-1118 yeast (edited)

MY HOMEMADE MEAD

It's not not super strong compares to like moonshine. My first batch has been percolating for about 4 weeks. I like being able to drink without feeling like it's going to come back up. When I drink I drink.

Strawberry melomel

About a year and a half old now, did a no water method. Used way too much honey but it tastes like Strawberry jam and isn't cloying. (edited)

Health Potion

If your homebrew is in a little potion bottle, it's instantly a health potion. Those are the rules. 😁

Superstition Meadery. Phoenix, Arizona
