Simple Mead, bottled

Published:

Description

My first ever batch of mead (no real flavorings, just a couple of cloves).

I used cheap honey (the sort you can get for 99p a jar), since I knew something would go wrong (in this case, I forgot to take into account the fact that honey has a volume and ended up diluting the must too much).

It's not very strong (only 9% alcohol, as you can see on the label). I've put the four full bottles on the wine rack and the half full one in the fridge for taste testing tomorrow. :D

I've learned quite a bit, so hopefully my blackberry mead will go better when it's ready. :D

EDIT: Just so you know, I made a mistake on the label; it should read 16 proof, not 18.
