Mead Brewing & Tasting: Refining Your Skills
Wyck hosts homebrewers, hobbysists, and imbibers for a 3-part series on brewing Mead at any level. The family at Wyck brewed Mead from a family recipe found in the recipe books of Jane B. Haines circa 1810-1840. Join us to see the original recipe and learn how things have changed.
Classes will be held 11am-1pm with a Mead tasting to follow provided by The Colony Meadery in Allentown.
