Before I knew about artisan mead, my mind always imagined a dark sweet drink that people in the middle ages drank in their local pub or in a grand hall. This may well be what many people think of when you mention mead. However, mead is making a come back. Nowadays mead can range from super sweet to bone dry with flavors galore. In our modern world of gluten-sensative diets, mead provides a great alternative to beer. For those who enjoy wine, mead is essentially a wine of a different flavor. We’re fortunate in North Carolina as we have several meaderies throughout the state. One of the newest is Honeygirl Meadery in Durham, North Carolina.
