I'm sure the wife won't see a "problem" with you trying to be environmentally sound with your recycling efforts. Not too many people recycle so you'e just doing your civic duty by keeping the recyclable bottles out of their irresponsible hands.

I'm not looking to keep the smaller stuff. But I figure those bomber bottles can't be cheap to produce. Surely there's some kind of recycle value

Got home late and jumped straight on the vherf without posting up yesterday's haul
12 oz bottles
Bombers (I couldn't wait on the bunny)
12 oz cans (I tore into the brunette on the vherf and it's mighty tasty)2 -
That canned stout goes down way too easy. And the peace tree barrel red is damn fine with steaks and friends1

Some dark stuff from the frigid north2

Not sure if this is the right thread but...
A close friend, beekeeper and off the forum BOTL has been making mead for quite some time and has gifted me a bottle of his finest.
I wish to consume it in a manner that leads to a positive experience but I don't know what I'm doing. Is it as simple as pour it in any receptacle and chug away?0 -

@Captain_Call; are you familiar with mead?
have you ever drank mead before?
mead is a honeywine so it'll drink more like a wine as opposed to a beer.
i normally drink it in a rocks glass, tulip glass, or stemless wine glass.
i prefer most meads at room temperature, but have found some types can be better chilled (either in the fridge or simply with an ice cube or whiskey stone).
it's likely a higher ABV (probably mid-teens) so you'll probably want to sip it.
and if you don't drink it all at once, it will stay good at room temperature for a couple months after opening it. just use a wine stopper to re-seal the bottle.
also, enjoy that. you need about 3 lbs of honey for 1 gallon of mead. that's why it's so $$$$

Thanks @jgibv. This is my first mead. My knowledge of it ends at honey wine. The container and temperature were what I was curious about. I suppose I was pretty vague.
The maker says it's tweaked with wild plums and he has never proofed it out but it is weak as mead is concerned. He chills his so I will likely do the same
Leftovers won't be an issue. Pa didn't raise a quitter0 -
@Captain_Call ;
haha ok, you're on the right track then.
most of the mead's i've had are very SWEET!!!
so a small pour is about all i can handle before switching to something else. there's no real wrong way to drink it IMO.
enjoy. let us know what you think of it!
