Brewing and Winemaking Links

Here we have collected links to resources for home brewers, winemakers, and mazers (mead-makers). All entries under the categories of suppliers and recipe sites were contributed by actual, real-live Wort Hogs, and in most cases include commentary on what is good (or not so good) about the site in question.

Beer

Homebrew Digest: I used this a lot to help with brewing the Berliner, and Wendell reminded me of it the other day. Good Stuff. [JT]

The Brewery: Tries to be all things to all brewers, and turns out being most to many. Not a half bad resource. [JT]

Beerhunter: Michael Jackson's site [KR]

The Cat's Meow: Not updated anymore [KR]

Gambrinus's Mug: The 'descendent' site of Cat's Meow (I've never checked to see if there is recipe overlap - I use them in tandem) [KR]

Home Brew Digest: Their discussion forum is legendary. [SG]

Home Brew Digest Recipator: Takes a little getting used to, but otherwise a useful tool. [DT]

Brew Your Own Magazine: A very nice site with a bunch of archived articles and recipes. [WO]

Wine

Somebody please send me some wine recipe links! Will Kohudic

Mead

Got Mead?: Good Mazer's resource [JT]

Yahoo Group: Meadmakers: Not bad, and with a public archive. [JT]

The Mead Brewing Archive: [KR]

Other

Cariadoc - Drinks: A small but interesting site with nonalcoholic Medieval Middle Eastern Drinks plus some mead variations - the Sekanjabin is my favorite and a great summer drink. It's still common in Iran today, according to a friend of mine. [KR]
