6-20-17 Bob Slanz – New York Beekeeper and Meadmaker of Awesome Seaweed Mead

6-20-17 Bobby Slanz is back on Gotmead Live! In our continuing conversation with amazing mead makers, we're bringing him back to talk shop about making awesome mead. Along the way we're going to dig into what he's been working on, and talk some more about the seaweed mead he makes that is becoming the talk of the mead world, and creating a splash whenever it turns up. At some point, I really want to try this, since I wasn't fast enough at the Mazer Cup to get some! Bob likes to play with unusual ingredients, and his meads are, from all accounts, pretty damn fantastic. So let's dig into the methods he uses to make such tasty and interesting meads!
