True St...Or you could try Mead, the drink of Thor!<br /><br />True Story.<br /><br />It was once nearly a crime to want to brew beer and wine (distilled spirits remain questionable in the eyes of the law) and the idea you would buy a kit to do so was enough to have the cops raid your house.<br /><br />Imagine my surprise (in the 1960's) when I picked up a copy of Scientific American and the Amateur Scientist article of the month contained a 2,000 word instructional about the care and preparation of Mead.<br /><br />Now, of course, you have only to click a few links. I doubt the Vikings or Scientific American used dairy thermometers though.<br /><br />http://historymedren.about.com/cs/foodandfamine/ht/brewmead.htm<br /><br />http://www.beerdude.com/howto_brew_first_mead.shtml<br /><br />Best, TJKAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866022460920878229.post-71926888466161705142010-07-19T13:10:43.524-07:002010-07-19T13:10:43.524-07:00Yea... stew isn't exactly what I'd be shoo...Yea... stew isn't exactly what I'd be shooting for with a beer name.
