We cracked open a bottle of mead that began its life shortly after our oldest was born. The mead and the kid are both 12 years old now! My wife and I split a bottle, and it’s pretty decent. It has definitely mellowed quite a bit since the initial taste over a decade ago. I wouldn’t claim it as the best ever, but it is a very nice commemoration! We have many more bottles saved to open over the years…

Of course it’s the best ever. You made it just after your oldest was born. I mean those memories alone make it the best.

Absolutely! Made even more special by the fact that my dad, who got me into homebrewing, helped bottle this batch. We made another batch after our youngest was born, with the same goal! Just like with kids, I was able to apply everything I learned from the first batch to the second one, ha!
