Any advice? My next project is going to be elderberry wine which I understand is a great defense against the flu.

- Just brewed two batches last weekend. One was a five gallon batch with the addition of raspberry puree (was meant for a raspberry lambic, but oh well!) and the other was about a gallon and a half of a blueberry ginger mead. I can't WAIT to try them! The blueberry ginger smelled and tasted scrumptious. I'm also trying a new method, based on a friend's instruction. Anybody else have any mead going?

Are there any in the Oxford Hills area? or the Lewiston / Auburn area? I have cut flower bouquets (in season) and think a buying club is a great idea.
Share your experiences, thoughts and questions about consumer buying clubs.
