The Story

I began my mead making journey during the post-pandemic era as a way to occupy my time. I watched far too many Norse inspired movies and TV shows and got to thinkng: "Why not make some mead, can't be that hard". It was and it wasn't. Mead is much like wine, simple and basic ingredients that come together through natural processes. So I did have a good simple mead on my hands. Making it better was the tougher part, finding the right balance of nutrients and the most optimal yeast strain took me a lot of time with trial and error. After a year or two I had settled on my recipe for Original Style. It's one of the first batches I brew every spring and seems to consistently please everyone that tastes it.
