Once upon a time there was a website called Unicorn Dreams, where many unicorns lived. One of the unicorns found its way here before the site disappeared. Artist unknown.
Welcome to the Unicorn Unchained Meadery (U2M).
This is a non-commercial meadery and have no mead for sale. So why is this a website? Brewing has never happened at my house and the brew notes are at the brew site. This is my copy. I like to make mead and I like to drink mead but I don't drink nearly enough to use up all the mead we've made so I like to take mead to parties for people to share, and I give away mead. If you are curious, you can look up the ingredients and find out more about what you are drinking.
The original U2M was a collaboration between myself and my friend Marcia Crary, making small quantities of mead for personal consumption. Our first mead was started in August 1994 and bottled January 1995. Our last mead was started July 2017 and bottled a year later.
U2M meads have a label on the bottle with the full mead name and a bottling date. See the List of U2M meads to find a link to the brew notes.
In 2019 I started collaborating with Dick Dunn, making mead at Talisman Farm. Meads made at the farm have labels on the caps, so the labels are small and names are abbreviated. If there is a date on the label it's the bottling date. See the List of TF/U2M meads.
In my opinion meads made at the farm are better than anything I made with Marcia. If you have U2M meads be sure to decant because there probably is sediment. They are unlikely to get any better with further aging.
