Mead recipes - honey wine of all types. These recipes are gleaned from various sources around the web, as well as having been submitted by Gotmead users.

Since we have no history on these recipes, we can't tell you if they'll make good mead. In fact, a lot of them make pretty *bad* mead, so caveat emptor, and YMMV.

If you want recipes that have been made many times and are proven solid recipes that will make good mead if you follow the instructions, then check out the Gotmead Certified section of the recipes.

In here you'll find recipes from the old AMA, the Mazer Cup, and other sources that are for Patrons only.

The American Mead Association started publishing several newsletters in 1993, and ran until their last issue in the winter of 1997. The founder, Susanne Price, was killed in a car accident in 1996, and the organization never really regained its feet after the tragedy. Here we have re-published all the recipes that were printed in the AMA newsletters, with permission from Pamela Spence (author of 'Mad About Mead' and co-founder of the AMA).
