Lawrence,
Miss Patty tippling a tall boy would have been a sight to behold! I have
made mead. It is strong and sweet. It is hard to find good mead making yeast
in this country. In my experience honey makes a better beer. Just make sure
to use at least 50% malted barley grain or extract. I took my dead hive
apart for disposal yesterday. While getting stung by a rogue bee I tried to
kick the supers apart. I dislocated my right big toe. Words to live by:
"Don't kick the beehive!" My son had his friend kick the beehive when they
were five and he got stung a lot. We have said "Don't kick the beehive"
since. Do as I say, not as I do.
