Now
here's a real honey of an event! The seventh annual Texas Mead Festival out in Seguin is a celebration of that versatile alcoholic beverage made by fermenting the golden goodness that comes from bees, and it features the potent creations of nine different Texas-based meaderies – including
Austin's own Meridian Hive –
and the international participants in this year's Texas Mead Cup competition
and, as if the finest beverages weren't sufficient, you can also
sample the honey that the mead's made from. Listen: "The fest is the only time you'l be able to see all the state's commercial mead makers in one place, and taste their products!" True enough – and, we reckon, what an excellent excuse for a day trip. Recommended!
