Discussion Topics: Helgi gave a great talk about mead, honey and his experiences making it. He had 5 different sorts of mead to taste to illustrate his points, all of them completely different from the other. Most interesting. His notes from the talk are here: http://fagun.is/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=3375
