Ever wondered how honey, water, and a little bit of yeast turn into one of the world’s oldest and most versatile fermented beverages? In Meadmaking 101, we’ll cover everything you need to know to confidently make your first batch of mead.
We’ll dive into the history and evolution of mead, break down the different styles and how they’re made, cover the equipment and techniques you need, and walk through everything that goes into starting your first batch. Then we’ll put it all into practice with a hands-on walkthrough, complete with your own take-home recipe. And, of course, we’ll finish things off with a mead tasting, because learning about mead is better when you get to drink it, too.
Whether you're a curious beginner, a backyard beekeeper, or just really like honey, come learn the basics and leave ready to start making your own.
