I bought 250g rose petals (source: famous foods, ask them to bag it up in bulk), some allspice, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. I have the half-bucket of honey (approx 7kg) and sweet mead yeast.

Gonna do the rosepetal mead this weekend.

In the future:

I'll see if I can get another bucket of honey to do a blackcurrant mead (I wish I could find gooseberries) and the cedar honeywine based on http://www.nbcnews.com/science/aged-perfection-3-700-year-old-cellar-housed-luxurious-wine-2D11638850 which I might do with grapes too. Still contemplating that one, I'm thinking seriously about emailing the guy.

I want to do another barleywine based on pale malt, and maybe another with my vanilla beans in english (less hoppy) style.

I want to do a sweet stout (with lactose) flavoured more strongly with sarsparilla (also at famous foods, need to talk to them about bulk) than with hops, for a root beer flavoured drink. I was originally gonna base this on a golden ale. Maybe do two batches? After the barleywine with its 97259874389798lbs of ingredients, regular beer feels so cheap to make.

I've been playing with the idea of doing a grape wine from a bucket of juice. Malbec or Syrah or maybe maybe sweet Riesling?

I also kindasorta want to do a port. Really kindasorta. But maybe a grape wine first?

My chocolate milk liqueur from last year (the previous year?) is amazing, I want to do another round of that now that meyer lemons are in stores. Need to ackquire vodka or, better yet, everclear for that.
