RE: [mnbrewers] honey

Here's something I've been preparing for Mead Day (next Saturday, Aug 3), but since it came up: WHERE TO PURCHASE HONEY http://www.honeylocator.com/search.asp ===================================== NORTHERN BREWER ===================================== MIDWEST HOMEBREWING ===================================== FARMER'S MARKET - Steve Piatz You can get local wildflower honey at the farmers markets in Minneapolis or Saint Paul. I'd skip the dandelion blossom and sunflower blossom. Buckwheat blossom is pretty strong but if you like the flavor in pancakes it is usually available. Some folks like linden/basswood honey which is also local. ===================================== COSTCO - Rick Oftel Cheap good honey in 5lb containers ===================================== TRADER JOE'S - Rick Oftel Mesquite honey in smaller tins ===================================== MILLERS HONEY COMPANY http://www.millershoney.com P.O.

I see that Northern Brewer has quite a few varieties of honey on the shelves. Are there any other options? Isn't this the time of the year when the new honey is available? (I don't know if new vs. old honey matters. I guess I'll find out at mead class on 3 August.)
