It has just got me thinking? Correct , the drinking of honey wine on the wedding night was supposed to aid in fertillity (strong healthy boys)

Here in the UK we can legally drink alcohol at 18:p

points and laughs at all the Americans

In Canada the legal age is 18 or 19 depending on the province. But having a beard is the legal ID in Quebec :D . We Canadians are proud of our beer and pity our fellow Americans with their silly laws and such ;) .

Then again US laws about drinking out of your house are a lot less restrictive as they are here in Canada.

[Lani]

Yeah, Canadians are not very interested in having drunk companies walking around and disturbing everyone, so people are pretty much confined to home and bars, which i don't think such a bad idea.

:b We manage (drinking age). <g> (We're living in Vancouver, right now, and wish BC allowed liquor to be sold in the grocery store...dang inconvenient to make an extra trip. ;) )

I think everyone should give mead a chance. There are some baddies out there, true, but some delicious meades as well. It always puts me in mind of the Hobbit. :)

Who knows what the Fantasy wines are like...they may be stronger than wine of Earth's history.
