Honey Wine
« on: November 19, 2007, 01:13:53 pm »
So my dad raided his hives again and he's going on holiday for a month so I just scored something like four litres of honey and I need something to do with it.
I'm thinking Mead and before I start scouting the net for instructions I thought I'd hit you guys up first to see if anyone had a good recipe (I seem to remember arachnocapitalist mentioning he'd made some a while ago).

I'm also open to any other suggestions for what one can do with ridiculously large amounts of fresh, sweet, unprocessed honey.

That would be very sticky.... I like your thinking.


Ooooh I could coat my walls with it until I could climb them. Probably need more than 4 litres but my dad has more and I have the keys to his house.

When I first saw this thread title, I thought it said "The Horny Wife."

Marijuana buds sauteed in honey were the inspiration for much of Neil Young's mid-career work.

So they must be awesome.

I didn't want to ruin a young minds interpretation, but cough honeyslides cough.

Also, we have been over this, which is why I didn't push further, but here you go:

Oooh, damn. Have your pa's bees been hit by that nasty bee virus? We've had a ton of hives decimated here in the States. I hope that y'all's bees are doing okay.

MEAD! MEAD! MEEEEAAAAD! That shit is delicious. Unfortunately I don't have a recipe.

Also, I was a bit confused by the thread title, similarly to the mayor. I am also not going to click on any of KH's links, sorry.
However, now i am craving honey on toast. Damn.

I'm pretty sure that as a kid I read a science fiction story where all the bees in the world died, and then we were fucked. So when I initially heard about bees dying for real, I understandably thought that uhhhh, we were all going to die.

Those sci-fi anthology type things were basically crack for me as a kid. That and real crack, that is.

I have a huge collection of them from the 60s through the early 80s.
