Heh. Realtime livejournal threading. You should be in bed, ne?
So it's basically mead, but you stick in peaches to round it out, the way people do different grains in their beer or their whisky.
On Saturday night I was kind of babbling to one of the other band mommies at the end-of-band-camp potluck (you know how they talk about band camp in teenage sex comedies? this is not like that.). It turned out she and her husband used to teach brewing classes in the Parks and Rec program, and she not only knew what I was talking about but had advice! So very odd -- I thought Jehovah's Witnesses didn't drink fermented things -- maybe that's why they don't do that anymore.
A local winery makes different meads, that's why I thought I ought to know. I like it. But the main reason I make wine is to use up my own fruit.
