Bottled some brews that have been in bulk long term aging for a bit. I bottled a mint chocolate mead called After Eight, a rose and vanilla rhodomel called Freya’s Kiss, a herb and spice metheglin called Miruvor Elven Mead, a traditional Fench mead called Chouchen and a pineapple habernero c***r.
That is just the beginning… I have more batches waiting to be bottled.

Hello my fellow mead makers, and those who are interested in the mead that I make, I have a bit of bad news. I was in a motorcycle accident a week and a half ago in Ottawa participating in the Motorcycle Ride for Dad. I suffered multiple fractures in my left wrist and right ankle. I had the surgeries to repair the damage and I am now recovering at home in Georgetown. My Motorcycle is not OK, but I will be OK.
All that to say that my mead making is taking a pause for now, but I will be back at it as soon as I can put weight on my right ankle which is probably gonna be 6-8 weeks. Happy brewing, my friends!

Here are some of the mead labels I have created for brews past, current and future. A couple are generic labels where I can write in the specific mead or c***r details. Other labels have been created for a specific batch. Some are smaller one gallon and others are seven gallon batches. A one gallon jug is enough for four 750ml bottles. The seven gallon batches I am working on like Santa’s Cane and Better together will yield something like 28 bottles!

Two recent batches bottled and corked and ready to go! A Summertime Mead made with pineapples, peaches, strawberries and cherries at 9% ABV and a Mango Mead at 8% ABV. Both were made last year and bulk aged a bit before being bottled.

Bottling & Labeling

I have been using various sized pop tab bottles for bottling but I just started using w**e bottles and corking and thought I would try my hand at creating labels.

Brought a sampling of my meads and c***rs to holiday gathering of a local nonprofit I am involved in.

16 different varieties on offer for people to try including a candy cane chocolate mead for the holidays.

I also got little 5oz pop-tab bottles from IKEA. Great for gifts or bringing sample-sized portions to a friend’s house.

I have been finishing off a bunch of brews in the last couple of weeks. Here I have bottled the Cranberry Orange C***r, the Peanut Butter Banana Mead, the Mango Ginger Mead, the Pear Mead and some of the Ginger B**r.
In most cases, I will store most of the brew so it can age and mellow but I put some in smaller bottles for tasting and sharing now.
