The Mead Podcast - With Chad from Garagiste Meadery

Season 4, Ep. 4
•

This week Tom & Will sit down with energy-filled Chad Wiltz from Florida's own Garagiste Meadery. We chat about sourwood honey, barrel ageing, carrot cake flavour profiles, cream cheese powder, and a laugh or two.


As always we chat about choose honey and making traditionals, choosing yeast, and discuss how different mead makers approach their traditionals and why.


We really enjoyed this week's chat with Chad even if there were a few technical issues, and we apologise for the stilted conversation as the delay sometimes means we talk over each other and the politeness of mead makers means we both prefer to listen.


Thanks again to everyone involved and you all for listening.
