Mead House Keyholder and home meadmaker Michael Trainer visits the House. On December 29, 2017 this biker and fan of all things fermented pitched yeast on his first home brew ever and his love of mead making was born. In a few days he had started 4 more batches and by the end of 2018 had made 20 different meads totaling about 75 gallons and is on track to almost double that in 2019 if he can manage to stay off his motorcycle for more than a week.
Valkyries Horn is right around the corner, and the Mead House is sponsoring the braggot category. Jeff lets us know what a few of the BJCP guidelines say to help you get your recipe together and brew one up for competition. The best part of this world class competition is braggots will be judged as it's own category. Enter as many as you want, in any category you want, but be sure and enter your best braggot too!
