Not everyone is born to be an astronaut... err, English-speaker :haw:
(Reminds of that Chinese restaurant that was named "Fuk Mi".)

But why is this in the RPG channel? Shouldn't that be in Offtopic?

And the Chicago Cubs new acquisition - Fukudome.  Apparently, folks in the US have been telling him to use his first name on his jeresey...

I don't know about German, but in English at least, Metheglin is a specific type of mead (containing spices).  A melomel is a mead brewed with the addition of fruits, while a braggot is a type of mead-beer (either honey with hops, or a honey/malt mixture with hops).

Damnit! So many choices in meads!

I have problems just trying to get brand-name mead at the local liquor store her in the states.

It's pretty uncommon here in Australia, too.  It is relatively easy to brew, but does take a long time to ferment.  Good mead can take up to 2 years to ferment and age nicely before being ready to drink.
