Hey, everyone! Figured I'd fire up a homebrewing community and see if there's any takers.

I know you're out there, just as I was out there lurking on other similar sites. :D

Come here and brag with your latest creation. I'll start, just brewed an unexpected wee heavy using Eitrhem kveik.

Cheers!

Nice spread!

If the bochet is lacking and blending's your thing, have you considered blending it with a barleywine?

That's not a bad idea. I had thought to keep it purely a mead and maybe blend it with a sweet mead I have yet to make just to give it some body but honestly a nice big beer might be just the thing to give it some complexity. I think if I am to go down that route I might choose a nice big stout to blend it with because I think the roastiness might complement the chocolateyness of the bochet nicely.

Thank you! I like making mead because it is high enough ABV that I can just let it age and do other brews whilst I work out what to do with it!
