I’ve never had it.Does mead taste like honey?
Yes and no. The essence of honey, but not straight honey.Does mead taste like honey?
Yeah, I’m sure that’s possible.Did you know they make pear cider
and pineapple cider?
Pineapple cider is good but if you have an acid stomach it will kill you.Did you know they make pear cider

Here in Poland, drunks would filter "denatura" (methylated spirit) through bread to remove the bad taste. Now, it is about the same price as cheap drinking alcohol, so they don't need to waste good bread.My dad told me when I was very young that hobos and homeless, guys who ride the rails and such, would filter through bread what was then used for automotive coolant.
Anyone verify that?
That's dangerous. Meths contains about 10% methanol, which will kill you. There were 2 young Australian girls who died in Laos last week after drinking shots that contained methanol. There were 6 people in total who died.Here in Poland, drunks would filter "denatura" (methylated spirit) through bread to remove the bad taste.

That is why the government put something that taste very bad in methylated spirits, but it didn't work as well as raising the price. Death from methanol was all too common. In general, death from alcohol is a big problem. I spent a night in an emergency ward with a heart problem, and almost all of the other patients were with alcohol poisoning. It was terrible.That's dangerous. Meths contains about 10% methanol, which will kill you. There were 2 young Australian girls who died in Laos last week after drinking shots that contained methanol.

Parents of teenagers who died in suspected Laos methanol poisoning hope deaths ‘not in vain’
Bianca Jones’s father urged Laos government to investigate deaths to the ‘fullest’ and ensure it could not happen againwww.theguardian.com
If you distill anything, the first runs off the still will be be very high proof alcohol containing a lot of methanol (it has a lower boiling point than ethanol). If someone is making backstreet hooch then it's a temptation to leave it in. At best it'll give you the worst hangover you've ever had. It also affects the optic nerves and causes blindness - hence the term 'blind drunk'. Too much - and it doesn't take much, and it'll kill you.
I’ve never heard that before.The word honeymoon is related to drinking mead.
Eh? I prefer vodka over beer. Any day.Beer is safer than vodka.
Good for you! I am rather young, and I cannot say the same!I have no idea. You could put all the alcohol I have imbibed in my 71 years and put it in a 2-liter bottle. Most of that was when I was in single digits, taking sips from Daddy's beer or taking a shot of Nyquil when I had the sniffles.
My mother died when I was a kid due to alcoholism. I resolved that I would never drink. Just never started.
I have nothing against those who do! It is certainly allowable by scripture. It is just me.Good for you! I am rather young, and I cannot say the same!
