He guards the honey with his life.

My newest batch of peach raspberry has just been bottled. Finished at about 12% ABV. The taste is sweet, great peach and subtle raspberry flavoring. Overall I think this one turned out well.

Sorry I haven't been as active lately. Working on a few things to show some updates.

In the meantime I was able to try my Blaand mead which is currently just aging. The cinnamon adds a nice flavor. I definitely think people will enjoy it.

Just an update on my Blaand.

It's sitting around 14% ABV. I added the cinnamon about two weeks ago and will let it sit for another month or so before I move on to the stabilization and clearing process. Then I'll let it bulk age and add the gold flakes when I go to bottle it.

Leave a comment with your best toast.

Here's an example:

"To the ones that we miss, to the ones we held dear, tomorrow won't come for them, so let's remember them with a beer"

Thor spake:
33. "Answer me, Alvis! | thou knowest all,
Dwarf, of the doom of men:
What call they the ale, | that is quaffed of men,
In each and every world?"

Alvis spake:
34. "Ale among men, | Beer the gods among,
In the world of the Wanes The Foaming;
Bright Draught with giants, | Mead with dwellers in hell,
The Feast-Draught with Suttung's sons."
