Just checked out GotMead.com and think I will make one of them recipies with the alc. content up in the 21%  range and bring a couple jugs to "ToeJam". I cant wait to see them folks after a couple glasses of them stuff. Pappy should have a real big smile on his face!

Think if I mailed it to Pappy to hold onto for ToeJam that there would be any left when I got there?

Found a recipe in a book about 30 years ago and decided to make some, it was a spiced mead. I did not care for it but then I don't really care for alcohol anyway

Marc, how long did you wait before you drank it? If you still have a bottle lying around try it now. I bet it had mellowed out and is the nectar of the gods...or vinegar! :-\

I don't remember exactly but I'm sure it was less than a year. I only made a couple bottles and I drank a bit more than I do now back then, now I don't drink at all.
