I have no clue if anyone has ever asked that before, but I'm curious as to what inspired you to start making mead. It would be really awesome if there was a little story behind it
Personally, I remember playing Skyrim (RPG for Xbox/PS3/PC for those who don't know), and I was doing a quest in the game where I had to frame this guy who owned a meadery by poisoning the mead he was going to be serving to a Commanding Officer. Since mead is EVERYWHERE in this game, I got curious and looked it up, and when I saw that it was made from honey, I began researching how to make it. I found out that it wasn't too difficult to do and quite rewarding in the end. After a few hours of researching, I decided that I wanted to start a new little hobby for myself by making mead. I'm usually the type of person who gets excited about something they really want to do, and then forgets about it the next day, but I actually stuck to this hobby, and found it to be really enjoyable! I can see myself doing this for nearly the rest of my life.
So everybody, what inspired you to make mead?
