Co-sponsored by Merchant Du Vin and Thunderhead Distribution. MEAD EVALUATION Those of you who have tasted honey wine (Mead), understand what an incredible beverage it can be. Be sure to follow the link below to see the results of our recent blind Mead tasting. Nine brave souls gathered in Athens to taste and comment on 14 U.S. Meads! http://www.negia.net/~brew/blind_mead03.html BEER IN BAVARIA Owen, Kerri and Thel have returned from a marvelous beer trek to the German cities of Munich, Kelheim, and Regensburg. We tasted beers in the best beer halls in Munich, toured the legendary Schneider brewery in Kelheim, and strolled along the Danube river in Regensburg looking for the best pubs in the city. Check out the new page with information and photos from each spot. Prosit! http://www.negia.net/~brew/germany2.html ______________________ That's about all for now.
