4 out of 5 stars Good beginners' guide.   October 27, 2008
I got this book for Christmas two years ago, and just bottled my first batch of apple melomel. I'm pleased with the end result, and there are some amazing-looking recipes in this book. Although it doesn't quite contain all of the practical information I would've liked to have starting out, and I wish there was more discussion of ways to make sulfite-free wines, it is a great book for beginners and I highly recommend it. Next project: Apricot wine.


5 out of 5 stars Wild Wines and Meads   July 2, 2008
This book is full of the most interesting and wonderful recipes for mead that I have seen so far. Simple, easy to follow instructions. No guesswork. Love it!


4 out of 5 stars Useful   June 22, 2008
Great book with some very good recipes. As a beginner thats never made anything home brewed before it was useful as a starting point. Additional books about the brewing process are necessary if you plan to actually follow through and make your own wines, meads etc. It will give you a good place to start and a general idea of what you need to buy and how the process works. Its very well laid out and a good place to start.


5 out of 5 stars WILD WINE & MEADS   June 16, 2008
WHAT A GREAT BOOK! A PLUS FOR ANYONE WHO LIKES TO EXPERIMENT IN THE KITCHEN ESPECIALLY WITH OUR "GOD GIVEN" FRUITS AND VEGETABLES OF THE WOODS...


4 out of 5 stars good basic recipe book   February 13, 2008
While this book isn't really for the beginner it has plenty of good basic wine and mead recipies. I've tried several with mostly good luck. It's also one of the few publications that have workable mead recipies. My only objection to this book is it seems to treat aging as the most important step in all wines. While it is very important, it isn't all that makes a wine, and especially mead, great.
