Brewing with Honey

Brewing honey into mead is far easier than most believe and the end product can be as dry as a bone-dry white wine or made to a sweet dessert style. With no need to mash grains or boil at all, the process is much simpler and requires even less equipment than making beer. The only drawback is that, in general, mead takes much longer to reach maturity and thus requires more aging time. That being said, you can still make a great mead in under two months or go all in and make one that can be enjoyed for decades to come.
