What's New With Mead
Welcome to What's New With Mead! In this podcast I sit down with mead makers, commercial brewers, home brewers and everyone I can possibly find who has their hands in the brewing world. This podcast is intended for you to not only get to know these people, but to also learn from their experiences and grow as a mead maker. You can support the show via my Patreon and find even more great content on the "Man Made Mead" YouTube channel!
