It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for amonth after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because theircalendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month ... which we know today as the honeymoon.
And NO!!! I was not there at the time!

Whoa! The PK SURE would've liked that!!!
Have you ever had mead before? We go to one of those renaissance faires every year and they serve it there....I don't care for it. It's actually a little bitter. Go figure, huh?
There was a time when I was really into making beer. I've probably made twenty different style. The stuff I make is every bit as good as the microbrewed beers on the market. I actually thought about going in to business. At one time I made a batch of mead. Didn't really float my boat.
