    I've never had a mead. I may have to try one.

    I didn't even know Kuhnhenn made them... shows what I know.

    They make some good and unique meads, mead isn't for everyone one, but if you don't mind some sweetness you might like it.

    Won't hurt to have one.

    So judging by the results ... is it safe to assume that Kuhnhenn makes better mead than B. Nektar...? I know it's all subjective, but.

    They both make quality meads, if i want a straight up mead I'd go with B. Nectar, but if I want a flavored mead I'm going with Kuhnhenn every time, their Put the Lime in the Coconut Curry mead was one that I will never forget.

    It will hurt your wallet, though.

    Wouldn't it just cost one ticket?

    I took that out of context, didn't realize they had mead samples at the expo.

    I don't know if they do either, but if it won awards, I'd think that it's there.

    I don't know if Kuhnhenn will bring any of their Meads, but B. Nectar is on the list so there will be mead available to sample, most meads are around 10% to 12% and are usually not cheap as tectactoe stated so it may take a couple tickets to get a full pour. B. Nektar's Zombie Killer might be a good one to try since It's not that strong and not overlly sweet with some added cherry flavors, they also have a hoppy mead that's worth trying atleasr once.

    This is why the event is a joke, amongst many other things.

    Wasn't planning on going, but my wife stumbled upon a friend selling their tickets and a hotel room/shuttle because they can't go. Anyone know how transferable these tickets are? I know this is not Brewers Guild related, but I just want to make sure when i show up I wont get turned away because my name isn't on the ticket.

    Any feedback, opinion or experience would be appreciated.
