Episode 8 - Susan Ruud - Prairie Rose Meadery – Got Mead? The Largest Mead Resource on the Web

Tonight on Gotmead Live we are chatting with Susan Ruud, owner of Prairie Rose Meadery in Fargo, ND. Susan has been in the homebrewing and meadmaking scene for a long time, and was involved with the AHA and GABF for years. I met her way back at the International Mead Festival back in the early part of the 21st century (doesn’t that sound like a long time ago?), and have had the fun of watching her grow her meadmaking and ideas into the meadery that she’s running today.

We’ll have a great time with Ask Oskaar, tackling your questions. This week he talks about learning to develop your palate, and how to evaluate and really *taste* your honey. Haven’t sent a question in yet? Grab the link at the top of the page and ask Oskaar![break][break]

And of course, JD, AJ and I will be chatting, this weeks’ topic will go up soon. [break][break]

A.J. – Pumpkin Spiced Braggot
J.D. – Redstone Meadery – Black Raspberry Nectar
