On Saturday, June 10 Roger Taylor and John Aitchison will be leading a Mead Class, Tasting, and Brew. It will be held at Tavern Services Warehouse at 18217 Parthenia in Northridge. Mead makers will get to taste a bunch of meads, learn more on how it's made and take home a gallon in a glass bottle which is provided. We're making a cherry ciser with King Orchard's Montmerency Cherry Juice. Honey and juice are expensive, the whole thing costs $50. You can get additional mead for $20 a gallon as well. Downright cheap compared to the cost of buying mead.
