Hello everyone, I searched the forums and came up with goose-eggs. A coworker of mine recently gave me 7 lbs of gooseberrys and has challenged me to make an alcoholic beverage out of it. I didn't think gooseberrys would work well in a beer, but I feel a mead would have a nice sweetness that would balance out the gooseberry. There is only one problems, I've never brewed mead before and have zero pallate as far as what specific ingredients taste like.
Has anyone tried making a gooseberry mead? If not, what do you think I could add into this mead to make it drinkable? I was thinking something to try to mimic a gooseberry pie (cinnamon? clove? etc?). Any thoughts?
