I've been making mead for a couple of years, and I like the results. The problem is that I've never tasted a mead that I didn't make myself. I feel kind of like someone who writes books without ever having read one.
Well I stopped by a local liquor store yesterday and asked if they had mead. They had just one kind -- Katlenburger. I bought a bottle, and I'm surprised at how sweet it is. All of my meads have been fermented to dryness, except one. (I have a batch of chocolate mead that is about one year old. It's sweet, but not nearly as sweet as the Katlenburger.)
I would like to try some more commercial varieties. Where does one go to find a decent selection of commercial meads? (near Dallas, TX)
