What is Mead?
We get asked a lot if mead is beer or wine, and technically, it’s neither. To be a beer, the sugar from malted grain is fermented into alcohol. A Wine ferments the sugar from fruits. As mead uses the sugar from honey, it’s a category all on its own. And let’s not forget that because the flowers bees visit help create variations in the flavour of honey, each and every mead can be unique too. Try clover honey with its light golden colour, to give the slightest hint of cinnamon notes or buckwheat honey for a dark robust almost molasses flavour. And of course, if you can get it, local wildflower honey will be distinct to your area too.
There are endless recipes that combine the best of the mead flavour with wine and beer-making techniques too. In Lithuania, they use grains and honey to make “Midus” a slightly bitter, medium-sweet drink that uses honey, grains and fruits and herbs.
