mine will be ready to drink in december. looking forward to it, and hopefully, roasted mead version. if i enjoy this batch.

going to try this next week. will be my 1st real mead, and my 1st large batch. im thinking of adding oak chips to give it a barreled taste. hope i dont mess this up, and all goes well!
